Fondo “Ispirare Londra attraverso la cultura”

The Inspiring London Through Culture Fund, administered by the City of London Corporation, supports the delivery of arts and culture projects and events in the Square Mile. Grants range from £500 to £10,000 and are aimed at organisations that can demonstrate impact for residents or workers in the City of London, or deliver most benefits within the Square Mile. Eligible applicants are registered charities, community interest companies, charitable incorporated organisations, charitable companies, exempt or excepted charities, charitable industrial and provident societies, or constituted voluntary organisations, each required to have at least three unrelated governing members and a business bank account with two unrelated signatories. Projects must meet at least one of the core criteria – promoting access, enhancing creative practice, delivering social impact, or supporting cultural tourism – and align with additional priorities such as community engagement, health and wellbeing, sustainability, and capacity building. Applications are submitted online via the City’s grants portal by 12 noon on Monday 30 November 2026, with decisions expected by February 2027. Pre‑application advice is available on request.
