A range of Isle of Wight charities and community projects have received funding in the first round of WightAID grants for 2026.

Island grant-giving charity WightAID is inviting local groups and organisations to share their plans for the year and apply for funding as it enters its tenth year.

The Wight Brand is a video-led marketing campaign designed to showcase the Isle of Wight as a standout place to live, work and play.

It was sunshine, music, and generosity all round as WightAID’s summer garden party raised an incredible £40,000 to support charities across the Isle of Wight.
