Henry Duncan Grants now open
Henry Duncan Grants have reopened for 2022 with a focus on supporting organisations working with children and young people (aged 6-26 years) experiencing inequality. The priority areas for 2022 are:
- Organisations that are supporting children and young people to shape their own lives.
- Organisations that are supporting children and young people to develop skills for the future.
Organisations can apply for unrestricted funding of up to £40,000 across five years (£8,000 per year).
Funding for Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic Led Organisations
Corra will commit around 30% of the fund budget (around £300,000) to support organisations that are led by Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic communities. If your organisation fits both of the criteria below (you must also fit the general eligibility criteria) you will have access to the ‘ring-fenced’ funding pot:
- 75% or more of the Board of Trustees/ Management Committee self-identify as being from a Black, Asian or Minority Ethnic community AND
- 50% of the senior staff self-identify as being from a Black, Asian or Minority Ethnic community, where staff exist.
If your organisation does not meet these thresholds you can still apply and be considered along with all other applications.
How to Apply
Applications close at 12 noon on 5th July 2022 and applications are online via the Corra Foundation website.
