Birmingham Pride Community
Foundation Grants
The Birmingham Pride Community Foundation provides annual grant funding to support vital LGBTQIA+ initiatives across the West Midlands. These grants are made possible by a ring-fenced £2 donation from every Birmingham Pride festival ticket sold.
We are proud to reinvest in our community and help grassroots groups deliver meaningful projects that celebrate, uplift, and support LGBTQIA+ lives.
Now closed for 2026 applications
Grants are available each year to support community projects that benefit members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer communities living in the West Midlands Combined Authority area.
We particularly welcome applications to support projects which focus on sections of the community which evidence shows are currently underrepresented:
Those under the age of 26
Those aged 55 and over
People with a disability, including mental health and neurodivergence
People affected by homelessness
Global Majority
Birmingham Pride community grants are funded by a ring-fenced £2 donation applied to tickets sold for the annual festival.
There are two types of grants:
Standard Grants – to support groups running substantial social, cultural, sporting or wellbeing initiatives – often set up to deliver benefits over a number of months. As the total amount available for grants is limited each year, applications for a smaller amount of money are more likely to succeed. As an example, in the last financial year, the average grant was £2,400
Micro Grants – offering a fixed grant of £300 to deliver a specific project or activity. The aim of the micro-grants is to fund small one-off initiatives which enable groups to carry out an activity which would not otherwise be delivered without extra funding.
The deadline for submitting applications for the 2025 programme was 31st August 2026. We are no longer accepting applications for this year.
