Apply for the St Ives Gold Card Community Fund
The St Ives Gold Card scheme has been raising money throughout the year — thanks to everyone who purchased a card, we’re on track to donate around £2,000 to support a local charity or community group here in St Ives.
We’re now inviting local organisations to apply for funding — it doesn’t matter how big or small the amount you need is. Every project that benefits our community is welcome to apply..
If your group has a project, event or initiative that benefits the St Ives community, we’d love to hear from you.
When applying, please include:
- Name of your charity or group
 - Contact name, email and phone number
 - A short description of your project or event
 - How much funding you’re requesting
 - What the money would be used for
 - When the funds are needed
 
Applications should be sent to St Ives BID by Sunday 30th November2025. Email Info@stivesbid.co.uk
Once all applications are received, the Gold Card Businesses — who have supported the scheme all year — will vote to decide which project receives the funding.
The successful charity or group will be announced in January 2026.
This is a brilliant opportunity for local organisations to receive financial support while celebrating the power of our community coming together.
A small card making a big difference in St Ives!
