Applications should meet all four of their principles:
- Representation: Groups and organisations have 75% or three quarters of leadership (e.g. director, founder, leader, coordinator, management, board) that identify as Black African/Caribbean and Global Majority people
- Self-led: Groups and organisations centre and encourage lived experience in their practices and take an intersectional approach to serve the communities they represent. 75% or three quarters of leadership (e.g. director, founder, leader, coordinator, management, board) have lived experience of the issues they work on.
- Services: The main focus is to serve Black African/Caribbean and Global Majority communities. 75% of the people and communities accessing the services are Black African/Caribbean and/or Global Majority People of Colour.
- Purpose: Your purpose and practices are intentionally challenging oppressive systems.
Ideas of some of the projects they can fund include: a series of wellbeing community events; an intergenerational art collaboration; contributions to heating and lighting costs where your work takes place; salaries to think through your strategy, and so much more.
