Supporting Smaller Charities on Their Digital Journey
Homeless Link is delighted to announce the launch of the In-Form Smaller Organisations Bursary Scheme, designed to help our members strengthen their digital capability and make the most of technology to support people experiencing homelessness.
Through this new initiative, eligible small organisations can apply for a £2,500 bursary towards the implementation of In-Form Essential or In-Form Enterprise, our client management system built for the homelessness and supported housing sectors.
The bursary aims to make digital transformation more accessible for smaller charities, helping them to streamline operations, improve client support, and measure their impact more effectively.
Full details, including eligibility criteria, application deadlines, and terms and conditions, are outlined below.

The In-Form Smaller Organisations Bursary Scheme is our way of helping to level the playing field – ensuring that every member, regardless of size, has the opportunity to benefit from the digital tools that can strengthen their services and demonstrate their impact.
