Aims and questions

Aims and activities

Funding organisations from across London are uniting to create a £100m fund to support voluntary and community groups to drive change and tackle inequality.

Over the next ten years, Propel will support organisations led by and for disadvantaged groups, including young people, women and girls, LGBTQ+ communities, deaf and disabled people, and communities experiencing racial inequality.

How to get involved

Propel partners are encouraging more funders and corporations to get on board to provide communities with the resources and capacity they need to drive long-term change.

If you're a funder who shares the ambition of developing bold, innovative, and creative programmes, sharing risks together to learn, unlearn and achieve more than the sum of our parts, then we want to hear from you. If you’re interested in joining us for future waves of funding or want to explore coming with us on this journey for the years ahead, then please let us know and we'll be happy to arrange a call to discuss further.

Who was involved

London Funders – the membership body for funders in the capital – is powering the collaboration, building on their experience of co-ordinating large scale funder collaborations during the pandemic through the London Community Response.

Supported by Bloomberg, City Bridge Trust, Greater London Authority, John Lyon’s Charity, and the National Lottery Community Fund, London Funders have been working with public and independent funders as well as the capital’s equity infrastructure organisations (HEAR Network, Inclusion London, LGBT+ Consortium, The Ubele Initiative and Women’s Resource Centre) to develop Propel.
