Neighbourhoods you can apply to
The Community Grant Fund (CGF) is split into 13 funding pots, each covering a different area of the city. The amount of money available in each pot is based on the number of people living there. Our small grants are for projects that aim to benefit a very local area, so projects working with people across large areas or the whole city will not be eligible.
You can apply for funding in the areas below:
- Almond - funding available £27,569.05
- City Centre - funding available £26,101.78
- Craigentinny and Duddingston - funding available £22,940.96

Total £405,679.00
Whatever is not allocated in the first funding round will be spent in the second and final funding round in the autumn of 2026. Funding is allocated on a first come first serve basis and some neighbourhood areas may spend all their funding in the first round. LeithChooses has one round of funding only.
