The Foundation runs an open application programme for charities and community groups that meet its aims. Find out how to apply below.
The Foundation launched its open application programme in 2025 to enable more charities and community groups to access donations.
There are two rounds of funding, with a total of £200,000 available for distribution each year, in the form of four £50,000 donations. The first round opens in March and two donations will be awarded in May. The second round opens in June, with two successful applicants selected in September.
Thank you to all those who took the time to apply to our first ever funding round. Unfortunately, we are unable to contact everyone individually to let them know the outcome of their application. The successful applicants have been informed and you can read more about them here.
Our next round of funding opens in June. Please look out for further updates on this page.
