How much can my organisation apply for?
There is no minimum or maximum amount of financial support that you can apply for. Grants can be a few hundred pounds or several thousand pounds. The level of support will be determined by various factors, but the main ones are the extent to which the funding will address the priorities determined by the Trustees (Trust staff will be able to advise on current priorities) and/or fill a gap in local provision. Other factors include the amount of other funding that will be made available (i.e. leverage), the number and background of the young people who will benefit from the organisation’s work and other demands for funding.
How long will it take for my application to be considered?
The Trustees usually meet every three months. A deadline date for applications is set prior to each meeting and advertised on our website.
Can I make more than one application?
We generally only make one award for a particular project, but the Trust is interested in supporting activities which are innovative and demonstrate high quality rather than “quantity”.
Who decides whether I receive some support from the Trust?
Applications from organisations are considered by the Trustees at quarterly meetings.
How do I apply?
