Funding for Charities Across the UK to Access Data Protection and Consultancy Services

DPO Centre is offering grants of up to £10,000 for charities and not-for-profit organisations across the UK to access their data protection consultancy advice and services and ensure they are run efficiently and in compliance with the law.

Through the Charity and Community Fund, a total of £150,000 is available across application periods throughout the year to help organisations achieve the following outcomes:

  • Provide immediate access to subject matter experts and a broadly experienced team of data protection professionals.
  • Remove ‘unknowns’ experienced when conducting a similar process internally.
  • Decrease the potential for compliance failure across an organisation.
  • Provide a substantial reduction in regulatory and reputational risk.
  • Lead to improved trust, increased engagement, reputation, and organisational value.

Funding can be used for the following available services:

  • Information Asset Register and Data Mapping.​
  • Policy Drafting and Review.
  • Impact Assessments and Gap Analysis.
  • Data Protection Training.
  • Data Sharing and International Transfers.
  • Privacy-by-Design.
  • Data Protection Readiness.

There is a two-stage application process. Groups should first submit an online application through the DPO Centre website. DPO will then contact successful groups to request further information and complete a full application.

The next deadline for applications is 31 March 2024.
