Leeds Fast Track Cities (FTC) has developed the Health Improvement Fund to facilitate opportunities for innovation and cross-partnership working on projects that address the FTC goals and ambitions.  This funding pot, established by Leeds City Council’s Public Health, will allow organisations in Leeds to put forward a proposal for grants that work towards raising awareness of symptoms and testing, addressing stigma and improving access to treatment for HIV, tuberculosis and viral hepatitis.

Proposals of up to £57,000, to be spent over 2026/27 and 2027/28 are invited, with no maximum bid value within this envelope.

The below document outlines the funding criteria and application details, plus a flyer to promote the opportunity. Please note the deadline for applications is 3 July 2026.

For further information, please contact lucy.simpson@leeds.gov.uk

All applications to be emailed to fast-track-city@leeds.gov.uk
