As a general grant making trust, the trustees are interested in and support a diverse range of charities in the following areas: community, education, health and social welfare.

The Trustees support capital projects only, not running costs. There is a preference to support projects related to the fabric of a building, rather than non-durable items subject to wear and tear such as furniture, appliances, musical instruments and IT.

Projects with a total budget of under £10,000 should not apply. Applicants must be charities registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales, with their beneficiaries based in these countries, or have accepted/exempt status. Applications are considered from all areas of England and Wales, particularly for rural and isolated communities.
