What We Fund

The Livewell Foundation supports initiatives or projects within Devon and Cornwall that will make a positive impact and influence on the community or on specific groups of individuals within a community.

From a minimum of £500 and up to £10,000 can be requested for any single initiative or project that meets our funding criteria.

Current funding priorities are for projects or initiatives that will either:

• Improve health and wellbeing
• Prevent Ill-health
• Reduce social isolation

What We Do Not Fund

• Work that does not have a direct benefit on communities or individuals  in  Devon and Cornwall
• Academic Research, unless the applicant can demonstrate significant potential for practical outcomes
• The promotion of religion
• Work that is primarily the responsibility of statutory authorities
• Core activities of organisations which are part of a national network of others doing similar work e.g. MIND, Age UK, Alzheimers Society
• Organisations that cannot demonstrate financial governance
• Requests to purely fund administration costs for running an organisation
• Projects that do not have a defined time period in which the beneficiaries will benefit
