Recognising Fife’s 50,000+ Carers

Every day, carers across Fife look after friends and family affected by illness, disability, mental health challenges, or addiction. Their contribution is invaluable — and we want to support them.

Carers Community Chest

Community groups and charities in Fife can apply for up to £10,000 to create spaces and activities supporting our carers that:

  • Build connection and belonging
  • Support carers’ wellbeing
  • Recognise the vital role they play

What can be funded?

  • Carers cafés, supper clubs, warm venues
  • Arts, crafts, gardening or allotments
  • Walking, cycling, swimming or golf clubs
  • Cooking, reading, writing, music or theatre groups
  • New local carers’ support groups

Applications open to any Fife-based community group or charity.
