NIHE: Community Involvement Grants 2025/26
Overview
Open to all constituted community groups within the Housing Community Network (HCN), the Community Involvement Grant Scheme is part of the Housing Executive’s Social Investment Framework and should be viewed as a means of encouraging Health and Wellbeing, Environmental Improvement, Intergenerational Practice Digital Inclusion and cost of living/poverty at a local level.
Community Involvement grants allow community groups to apply for funding for projects that will benefit Housing Executive Communities.
The projects must fit in with one or more of the below themes:
- Health & Wellbeing
- Environment Improvement
- Intergenerational Practice
- Digital Inclusion
- Cost of living/poverty
Please contact your Good Relations Officer for a copy of the Community Involvement Grants Guidelines.
This is compulsory as these will assist you in completing your application. Partially completed applications will not be accepted. See below for contact details.
Funding
The maximum amount of grant available will be £5,000 and it is intended that a response will be issued within a maximum of 8 weeks of the closing date.
Applications are welcome from community groups, tenants, residents and leaseholder groups who are active within Housing Executive areas across Northern Ireland and are involved in the Housing Community Network (HCN).
Please note:
Applications from community groups who do not sit on the HCN will only be considered after applications from HCN groups have been reviewed
