One-off grants up to £28,000 are available to frontline women’s not for profit organisations across the UK that are governed and led by women and actively addressing violence against women and girls in the UK.
This fund is for organisations that have an income of between £100,000 and £500,000.
ROSA's Stand With Us Fund has been established to support the many organisations run by and for women who stand up and take action to address violence against women and girls (VAWG). The programme was most recently open to applications in 2024. Between 15 and 20 grants are expected to be awarded during the 2026 round.
The Fund supports organisations to become stronger and more effective; better meeting the needs of women and girls and influencing wider change for all women and girls across the UK.
Organisations can apply for up to £28,000 to fund areas related to organisational development, including strategy, governance, leadership, having a stronger voice within the women’s movement, building alliances, fundraising, impact, systems and processes.
Applications will be prioritised from:
- Organisations which are led by and for Black and minoritised women and girls
- Organisations led by and for women and girls with disabilities
- Organisations led by and for LGBTQ+ women and girls
- Organisations operating in the top 10% of the most disadvantaged areas in the UK – based on the Indices of Multiple Deprivation (IMD), and
- Organisations based in Scotland, Wales, or Northern Ireland.
Further information, guidance and an online application form is available on the ROSA Fund website.
The deadline for applications is 4pm on Monday 22 June 2026.
