Lincoln Lottery Community Fund Consultation Results

During August 2019, a resident consultation took place to identify the two good cause areas where residents would like the £10,000 from the Lincoln Lottery Community Fund to be allocated to, following the first year of Lincoln Community Lottery.

The results from this consultation are now available and are provided below:

Social isolation (56) 25%

Green Spaces (48) 21%

Homelessness (40) 18%

Food Banks (38) 17%

Arts & Culture (31) 14%

Sport (13) 6%

Following the consultation exercise, Voluntary Centre Services will shortly be inviting applications for funding from good causes working within the leading two good cause areas. Funding applications will be for up to £5,000, and should be used to support a specific project or activity supporting residents in one or both of the leading good cause areas.

Notification of the application process going live will be communicated during September 2019 via the City of Lincoln Council’s and Voluntary Centre Services social media pages. The links to these pages have been provided below:
