PROGRAMME 2: ESG – ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE

FITZROVIA COMMUNITY GRANT

Pilot Programme

The Fitzrovia Partnership’s Community Grant invests in local charities, community organisations, and social enterprises that deliver projects which strengthen connections within the Fitzrovia area.

The grant is intended for initiatives where direct investment in Fitzrovia can be demonstrated. Funding is unrestricted, but all recipients must align with TFP’s missions and provide full transparency on how funds are used and what impact is achieved. The maximum grant that can be allocated per organisation is £1,000 per financial year (1 April – 31 March).

View the full policy including information on eligibility, fund allocation, decision process and more.

This Community Grant is being introduced as a pilot scheme. Its design, process, and outcomes will be reviewed at the end of the pilot phase to assess effectiveness, community impact, and alignment with TFP’s CSR commitments.

2026 Grant Recipients

Mosaic LGBT+ Young Persons
Delivering paid work experience opportunities for LGBT+ young people aged 15 to 25. This allocation will fund three 20-hour placements, providing participants with a vital stipend and professional experience. 

Fitzrovia Community Centre
Sponsorship of a special one-off workshop with a sustainable focus at Fitzrovia Fete, to encourage sustainable practices and teach people about small changes they can make to their everyday lives.

Fitzrovia Youth in Action
Sponsor weekly health-living drop ins for young people in Fitzrovia. This will be an expansion of a recently launched service, targeting those who are less active or face barriers to participation, particularly those from BAME backgrounds, inactive girls and young people at risk of isolation.

All Souls Primary School
This funding will provide All Souls Primary School’s early years children with opportunities they might not otherwise have to explore their local community, supporting their Personal, Social and Emotional Development, early literacy, and understanding of the world. Children will visit local businesses, such as a café or shop, experiencing first-hand the people and places that make up their community. These outings will be extended back in the classroom through cooking, craft, and storytelling activities, helping to bring their experiences to life.

PropUp Project CIC
PropUp Project provides social and sustainable clearance services to the UK film and TV industry. With some funding we could boost our Warren Street operation and open the doors to the community for monthly open days. These open days would mean local charities, community groups, youth groups and schools could come and collect resources they need.

Fitzrovia Chapel
Fund the curation, installation, programming and promotion of the Middlesex Memories exhibition. The exhibition will mark twenty years since the hospital was demolished and ten years since the chapel reopened. It will bring together and celebrate the aging Middlesex Hospital community, providing opportunity for reminiscence and remembrance, and to celebrate their beloved hospital in its former chapel.

American International Church
To help cover catering costs and project coordination costs for the Community Super clubs. As we seek new funding, we plan to expand these events to intentionally invite community partners from various faith and cultural backgrounds across Fitzrovia/Camden who are also working with refugees, asylum seekers, and migrants. ​

Little Village
This grant will contribute to core running costs. It means keeping our hubs and warehouse running, coordinating referrals, supporting families through our Family Connections team, and mobilising hundreds of volunteers. 

Friends of Crabtree Fields
Weekly afterschool play sessions for the pupils from All Souls Primary School. These sessions would provide a mixture of multi-sports and games activities as well as utilisation of the park facilities with 2 members of staff.

Stage 81 CIC
Stage 81 CIC will deliver a five-week Stand-Up Comedy Course at Fitzrovia Community Centre designed to help local residents build
confidence, improve communication skills, and explore creativity through performance. The initiative promotes well being, self-expression, and community connection while offering participants real world performance experience.
