Funding

ICA covers its running costs (and the cost of its services) through a mix of grant funding, donations, local giving, legacy gifts and fundraising events.

To date, we are grateful to have benefitted from the following support during the 2022-2023 financial period:

GRANTS

  1. For Helping Hands – ICA’s support offer for older people and those impacted by disability and / or serious, life-limiting or terminal illness…
    • Albion Stone
    • Hall & Woodhouse.
  2. For The Portland Project (including Growing Local – food, growing and the environment)…
    • The National Lottery Community Fund: Reaching Communities
    • Portland Town Council
  3. For additional projects and core costs…
    • Dorset Council: Operational Support Revenue fund – core costs
    • Portland Court Leet
    • The Rotary Club of Island & Royal Manor of Portland

NON-GRANT DONATIONS & FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES

In addition to ICA’s successful grant applications, the charity works hard to raise income through its own fundraising activities. We are also incredibly grateful to have benefited from a range of donations from local Portland residents.
