Apply for the Grassroots Pride Fund

We are looking to expand the Grassroots Pride Fund to more rural areas and smaller towns. We want to help create opportunities for people to come together and be their true selves throughout Wales.

The fund will help smaller Pride events across Wales engage and support LGBTQ+ people and broader communities.

There should be one lead applicant who will act as project manager who is responsible for the day-to-day management of this award of Funding.

Some of the targets of the Fund are to enable:

• to host an LGBTQ+ Pride event in a location in Wales, which can include opportunities for LGBTQ+ performers and artists
• to undertake outreach with wider communities with a focus on exploring safer spaces and supporting new social events
• a Government commitment to provide on-going support to Pride Organisations 

The Welsh Government Grassroots Pride fund is administered by Pride Cymru Cymru and opens on the 15 June 2026, apply via their website. Further information can be found at Pride Cymru’s website.
