Jigsaw Foundation is an exciting new £500,000 fund to support local projects run by charities, resident and community groups, voluntary organisations, social enterprises and partner agencies.
It replaces our former GREAT Neighbourhoods fund and Breathe Investment Grants.

Jigsaw Foundation supports Jigsaw Group’s vision of ‘We want everyone to live successfully in a home they can afford’ and mission of ‘Creating homes. Building lives.’
