How much money can I apply for?
Our grants to individual young people are normally in the range of £50 to £500 - the amount awarded will depend on your need and your personal (or family) circumstances. If the amount you need is more than we can provide, a grant may be made subject to you securing other funding.

We will try and give you a decision on your application within 4 – 6 weeks of receiving it. However in some situations this make take longer, particularly if we receive incomplete applications and require further information from you.

The Trust will take into account the circumstances of each applicant based on the information provided on the application form.
