Whole Family Support Third Sector Delivery Fund
Created: 13/03/2026
News/Events Category: Funding and Finance
This item will show under the following categories: Children and Families
This fund from the Scottish Government helps third sector organisations support families living in poverty or at risk of poverty. It will do this by boosting their capacity to deliver Whole Family Support in communities across Scotland. It contributes to their goal of ending child poverty in Scotland.
This fund supports up to 10 third sector organisations to help make that happen. They want to work with:
- Partners who can work nationally, or across multiple local authorities areas, to support families in their communities
- Successful organisations to help ensure that this activity is as joined-up as possible with existing local work to deliver Whole Family Support
Third sector organisations or partnerships can apply for a share of £20 million in funding for 2026/27. They expect that funding will continue and move to a multi-year basis from 2027/28, subject to future confirmation.
Who can apply?
You can apply if your organisation (or a partnership of organisations) meets these eligibility criteria:
- is registered with the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator (OSCR), or is working towards registration
- can deliver services across at least two local authority areas; bidding organisations or partnerships should be able to demonstrate an ability to operate nationally or have a clear operating model that will allow them to reach large or multiple communities, with a particular focus on reaching significant numbers of children and families living in or at greatest risk of poverty
- has experience of providing holistic, whole-family support with clear, measurable results
- can show that the communities you work with help shape how your services are designed
