Only registered charities in the U.K. whose primary objectives are to assist one or more of the following groups:

• Disadvantaged/underprivileged young people (under 25 years of age)
• People with disabilities (physical or learning disabilities) or mental health problems
• Older people (aged over 60)

They do not respond to organisations who do not meet the above criteria.

 Large grants – one off payments for capital expenditure of approximately £2,000 and over (the majority of grants fall within the range of £2,000 to £5,000). Preference is given to specific items of furniture and equipment (excluding office items) which the Charity can fund in their entirety.

Please bear in mind that the Trustees prefer to use the Charity’s funding to complete projects in order to maximise effectiveness and ensure grants are taken up as quickly as possible. This means that minibuses, building and refurbishment works are only considered in the final stage of the fundraising appeal. Please apply once you have a shortfall of £15,000 or less.

When to apply: Applications may be submitted at any time and will be considered at the next appropriate Board meeting. Applications for Small Grants of up to £750 are considered monthly.
