Description:

The Foundation’s Trustees fund projects requiring either capital or revenue support. There is no general limit to the grant which can be awarded to any one project. Most grants given are for less than £30,000. In the past the Trustees have given larger grants to major one-off projects or for research projects over defined periods.

The Trustees are in appropriate cases willing to express an intention to commit funds for up to three years, if it can be shown that substantial benefit will result from an extended period of funding. An intention to commit funds for future years is always subject to funds being available at the time.

 Grants for small (less than £5,000) amounts can be considered between meetings and enquiries can be made to the foundation in relation to such awards at any time.
