About
KEY LINKS >> Request a grant • Donate to the fund
Welcome to the Downham Solidarity Fund. We help to ease the burden of the cost of living by helping to redistribute funds within the Downham Market community to those who need a little extra. We offer grants of up to £50 to those in Downham Market in need of financial support, with no need to justify or explain.
Downham Solidarity Fund operates as mutual aid, a proven model which has a long history of helping people across the world. The approach of small no strings attached grants is used by the Red Cross in crisis situations. As mutual aid means the community is supporting the community, we rely on donations from individuals within the town to contribute to the fund.
