Description
The Sizewell C Community Fund – Large Grants programme, managed by Suffolk Community Foundation, provides substantial funding for charities, community groups, and social enterprises delivering projects that benefit communities in East Suffolk impacted by the construction of the Sizewell C nuclear power station. The fund aims to reduce the negative effects of construction and create a sustainable, positive legacy for the most affected areas.
