Communities Building Economic Change
- Published: 2 September 2026
City Bridge Foundation is a 900-year-old charity which owns and manages five Thames bridges – including the iconic Tower Bridge – at no cost to the taxpayer. Since 1995, as London’s largest independent charity funder, we have awarded more than £900 million to charitable organisations tackling inequality and social injustice across London.
This funding is open to applications. It offers five-year core and flexible funding of up to £450,000 to small- and medium-sized, community-rooted organisations tackling economic injustice in London, with an annual income between £50,000 and £1.5 million.
Our five bridges are symbols of London’s history and beacons for its future. Learn more about Tower Bridge, London Bridge, Southwark Bridge, Millennium Bridge and Blackfriars Bridge
We fund organisations working to make London fairer – strengthening communities and challenging the systems that marginalise them. Explore our current opportunities and other ways we support charitable work.
