Community Ownership Fund: full application

Find out whether a Community Ownership Fund application window is currently open and how to apply.

The Community Ownership Fund is closed for applications

We are not currently accepting applications to the Community Ownership Fund.

We expect to open Round 4 Window 2 in late May. Specific timings for the final window will be published in due course.

How to apply

You must complete an Expression Of Interest (EOI) before you apply.

Please note that EOI outcomes received prior to February 2024 are no longer valid. If you submitted an EOI prior to this date, you must submit a new EOI via the above link. We will only accept new EOI reference codes at full application. These will be in the format COF-EOI-XXXXXX.

If successful, we will send you an email reminder 2 weeks before the next window opens and on the day it opens.

When a window opens, you will need to enter your EOI reference code when you start your application.
