Awards from £1,000 to £25,000 for winning projects

We know you want to do the best for your clients in all the ways you can – and we want to help you. Between us, we can do that with the Aviva Community Fund, which returns on 12 September.

The Aviva Community Fund embodies this energising, social spirit in a big way, offering communities the chance to win funding for local projects, from sports clubs to social centres. The great thing about it is that it really works; improving facilities, creating new opportunities and changing lives.

The fund is open to everyone – Aviva customers, employees, insurance brokers or financial advisers (whether associated with us or not) and the general public.

Three good reasons for advisers to enter   

1Be a local hero                           

Your support for a local project bumps up its chances of winning!

2Build your brand
Engaging with your local community is good for your firm’s reputation.
3

Project submissions and voting 

To enter the Aviva Community Fund, you must be championing an idea that will make a positive difference in your community.

The project and organisation must be based in the UK and must fall into one of these four categories:

  • Health and wellbeing
  • Skills for life
  • Community support
  • Inclusivity

Last year, we had 3,908 entries and 5,052,845 votes. We gave out 450 main awards, with 800 projects received some form of funding.

You can submit your project from 12 September 2017 

But don’t wait until then to start planning your project. It can take time to get all your plans in place, so get thinking about the difference you can make in your community.

Go for it! We’ve got all the information you need and more: the timetable, submission guide, project submission forms, and even a useful video on crafting a good entry that’s well worth your time.

Visit the Aviva Community Fund site and put 12 September in your diary. It’s time to make a difference. Good luck!
