Bay Foundation

The Bay Foundation was established by Lancaster District CVS to promote and organise fundraising opportunities and programmes for the benefit of communities in the Lancaster District. We have supported local communities for almost 50 years and have two decades of experience in fundraising and grant administration.

As a Living Wage Employer, we encourage applicants to support the movement and set appropriate pay rates.

Funding Opportunities

We understand how challenging it is for VCFSE groups to source funding and can help by conducting funding searches on your behalf.

We also administer several grant programmes. You can find out more about these on our Funding Opportunity page, and complete your applications through our online portal.

We’re here to help if you need support with applying for funding. Contact us by email at [email protected] or telephone 01524 555900.

Grant Administration

We have administered grant programmes on behalf of philanthropic organisations, businesses and the public sector for more than twenty years, helping funding to get to the places and projects that make a real difference to people’s lives.

If you would like to know more about how we can help administer grants on behalf of your organisation, please contact Yak Patel, our Chief Officer, by email at [email protected] or telephone 01524 555900.
