The Phoenix Way

The National Lottery Community Fund and The Ubele Initiative, on behalf of The Phoenix Way Partners, have jointly announced a partnership aimed to boost funding and support to Black and Minority Community charities and grassroots groups over the next five years.

The Phoenix Way’ will create a series of national and regional panels, made of leaders and decision-makers from Black and Minority community-led charities and grassroots groups from across England.

The new initiative will help to facilitate engagement with Black and Minority community-led charities and grassroots groups to enable them to access funding and support that have previously failed to reach them and have been difficult for them to access.

Operational details of The Phoenix Way programme will be designed and developed over the summer – with the aim of awarding funding, from autumn 2021. Black and Minority community-led charities and grassroots groups that wish to register an interest in the programme should email thephoenixway@ubele.org
