The East Midlands ESF Community Grants programme provided grants of up to £10,000 to small, third sector, voluntary and community organisations to engage with local communities to deliver a range of skills and employment support activities to enable people from the hardest to reach communities, experiencing multiple disadvantages, to make progress towards the labour market.

The ESF Community Grants programme was designed to assist small not-for-profit groups based in and run by people from the community they support. The grants were not intended to be made available to larger more established third sector organisations that already had the experience of and capacity to apply for funding (unless they were acting on behalf of a smaller group within their community.)
