Introduction To Positive Action Funding

Through its Community Strategic Initiatives, Positive Action provides funding to community-led and community-based organisations that are committed to eliminating AIDS and supporting people living with HIV. We currently offer funding under two funding streams, Innovator Funding, that aims to test and pilot new ways of working, and Momentum Funding, that aims to scale-up proven ways of working.

Innovator Funding

Up to £100,000 over two years (£50,000 per year)

  • Investments into the testing and piloting of new approaches
  • The proposed approach(es) must be new to the funding applicant but can have been delivered by another organisation in a different location or aimed at a different target population.

Momentum Funding

  • Up to £300,000 over three years (£ 100,000 per year)
  • Advancing existing, evidence-based projects to enable sustainable scale-up
  • The funding applicant must have delivered the approach(es) previously and have evidence that the approach(es) work
  • Funding can be used to build on previous investments made by Positive Action or other donors
