**[Edge Fund](https://edgefund.org.uk/) has announced that it is accepting applications
for its next funding round.**

 

Edge Fund supports work run by and for communities facing discrimination and injustice,
funding grassroots groups as well as individuals in England, Ireland, Scotland, 
and Wales that struggle to find funding elsewhere.

It specifically seeks to fund work that ‘challenges abuses of power and aims to 
change society by bringing an end to the systems that cause injustice’, looking 
for ‘applicants that ultimately aim to end or replace these systems with a just 
alternative, rather than trying to improve or reform them’.

 

The deadline is 3^(rd) July, and groups can [apply on the Edge Fund website](https://edgefund.org.uk/applying/how-to-apply/).
The maximum grant that can be applied for is £3,000 for groups and £1,000 for individuals.

 

Round 5 of funding, which took place earlier this year, saw Edge Fund award approximately
£40,000 to 30 groups,
