Please note that we have a small team and receive a large number of applications and so it can take some time to process and respond to enquiries.
We make grants to other UK charities or organisations and entities established for charitable purposes. These are organisations which are registered with The Charity Commission for England and Wales, The Charity Commission for Northern Ireland, the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator, or are registered as a Community Interest Company, or are exempt from registration.
