The Trust’s Grant Policy

The trustees welcome applications for grants and request that those applying adopt the procedure set out in “How to apply for a grant”

While the trustees discretion is wide, as a matter of practice the trustees have historically sought to support:-

1. Charitable projects and activities in or benefiting people in the East Midlands.
2. Organisations where the amount of the Trust’s grant “makes a difference” e.g. this may be by making a gift to a small organisation which is unlikely to have access to similar amounts of grant or provides a regular income over a number of years allowing the organisation to plan a particular project.
3. Organisations which have significant volunteer support.
