Who can apply
The Foundation is only able to support UK registered charities and CIOs (Charitable Incorporated Organisations) working within the UK.
They also accept applications from organisations that have ‘exempt’ status – this is restricted to places of worship, hospitals, education establishments, museums and housing associations.
When to apply
There are no deadlines. The Trustees make decisions all year round on grant applications.
Regular Grants (those under £100,000) are considered in order of receipt to be fair to all.
They also have eight meetings per year to review Major Grant applications (£100,000 and above) and these agendas are carefully planned in advance to ensure they are fairly balanced throughout the year.
How to apply
Apply online via the Foundation website. They have an eligibility quiz which you can complete to ensure you are eligible to apply.
