Blue Light Card Foundation 'Workplace Wellbeing Fund'
Overview
The Foundation knows how important it is for blue light workers to feel supported, connected, and valued in the workplace.
Their Community Grant scheme offers £2,000 to 10 blue light teams to help boost wellbeing where it matters most: on shift, on station, or at base.
Whether it’s refreshing a staff room, funding a series of yoga or mindfulness sessions, or simply stocking a snack drawer, if it makes a positive impact on your team’s wellbeing, they want to hear about it.
Who can apply
The fund is open for applications by individuals or teams who are currently working in a blue light role.
You must be applying on behalf of a team, unit or workplace group, not as an individual for personal use.
They class the Blue Light community as the following groups:
