Deadline for application is Monday 04th May 2026, all application details available via the ‘Apply here’ link.
Hackney Council are offering microgrants of up to £2,000 for a cultural event or activity that celebrates the Windrush Generation and their descendants.
We also allow you to use this funding towards bigger projects, where this funding might be the match support.
These events will be part of the Hackney Windrush Generations Festival and must be delivered between Monday June 15th - Sunday 12th July 2026.
Please be aware that Windrush Day is Monday 22nd June. While you are welcome to plan events on this day, you may want to consider programming either side of this date to avoid competition!
The deadline to apply is 11:59pm on Monday 4th May 2026. Applications will not be accepted after this date. We will notify you of the decision by early May.
Online surgeries will be held on the following dates:
Thursday 2nd April 2pm
