Your Pots 2026

The Pots of Possibility ‘Your Pots’ fund provides grants of between £5,000 and £10,000 to local projects that can help regenerate North Lancashire’s environment and build healthy thriving communities across our district.

Twelve organisations have applied for grants in the 2026 round. We worked with them to create videos about their proposals, which you can view on this page.

Unlike other funding programmes, where decisions are often made by panels behind closed doors, Your Pots asks residents of the Lancaster district to let us know which projects they think should receive grants by taking part in the Your Pots — Your Say voting process.

If you’d like to have your say, you can either vote in-person at an event taking place at The Platform in Morecambe between 10am and 1pm on Saturday 5 December, or you can vote online. Whichever way you choose to take part, you’ll need to register here.
