Following feedback from disabled supporters and disabled supporters’ associations (DSAs), CAFE has introduced the CAFE Week of Action small grants programme.

The CAFE Week of Action small grants programme offers funding to disabled supporters and DSAs to participate in the CAFE Week of Action. Grants of up to €250 are available, subject to a successful application to CAFE.

If further funding would still be required, CAFE encourages applicants to seek additional means of fundraising to generate larger budgets.

Whilst the CAFE Week of Action small grants programme is targeted primarily at disabled supporters and DSAs, consideration will be given (should any grant funding remain) where clubs would require financial support to take part in the CAFE Week of Action.

Complete the CAFE Week of Action small grants programme online application.

The deadline for CAFE to receive completed applications is Monday 22 February 2021. If you would require support in completing your application, please email [email protected] or call +44 (0)208 065 5108.

All applicants will be notified of whether their application has been successful or not within 10 working days of CAFE receiving completed applications.

Grant applications will be assessed based on the following criteria:

• Relevance to the CAFE Week of Action and CAFE’s aims
• Expected costs and value of the activity
• Sustainability and legacy of the activity
• Wider impact of the activity in a particular country / region
• Creativity and deliverability of the activity

50% of the grant offered will be paid within 10 working days of applicants receiving confirmation of an approved application from CAFE.

Successful applicants will be asked to complete an online report and submit photographs and videos (where appropriate) from their CAFE Week of Action activities.

The remaining 50% of the grant will be paid within 10 working days of CAFE confirming receipt of a completed report. Outstanding grant balances will not be paid where reports are not completed.

If you have any questions regarding the CAFE Week of Action small grants programme, please email [email protected] or call +44 (0)208 065 5108.
