New Robertson Trust fund launched

Posted on 13 May 2021 by Christie McAlpine

The Robertson Trust have launched Partners in Change, a new fund for organisations working in Scotland with a charitable purpose and a turnover above £2 million, including registered charities, housing associations, Community Interest Companies, universities and credit unions. 

The new fund, which is seeking expressions of interest from a range of qualifying organisations by 3rd June 2021, will focus on the concept of change, and its application to how services and support for people experiencing poverty and/or trauma are designed and delivered. Organisations should be seeking to address one or more of the following;

  • Financial wellbeing
  • Emotional wellbeing and relationships
  • Educational and work pathways

A small cohort of organisations (they anticipate in the region of 10) will be supported through an initial round of funding, which will offer a maximum of £150,000 per year for three years.

To find out more about the fund and submit an expression of interest, visit the Robertson Trust website.
