If your charity’s work falls within one of these categories and would like to be considered for a grant, please submit an application by 1st June or 1st November only in the appropriate year.  Please see How to Apply for further details.

Trustees' meetings are usually held between 4 and 6 weeks of the submission deadlines. A list of successful charities will be posted on the website as soon as possible after these meetings. Please check this list to see if your organisation has been successful as it takes some weeks for written confirmation to reach all applicants.

Applications for projects that do not fall within these categories are extremely unlikely to be considered.

Applications should be sent to the address on the Contact Details page.
