How to Apply for Funding

We seek to support genuinely good ideas that will make a real difference to the lives of local people. Where applicants do not meet the requirements of the Port Community Fund, Suffolk Community Foundation will work with the group or charity to support them to achieve the criteria.

Who Can Apply?

Any organisation or group established for charitable purposes can apply, provided there is a formal structure which will allow for monitoring of activity and feedback to the Fund. The Fund will consider applications from voluntary and community groups in Felixstowe, Ipswich and the surrounding area whose primary aim is to improve the quality of people’s lives.
