Open Application Programme

Apply for a £50,000 donation for your charity

The Foundation runs an open application programme for registered charities 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 opened in March, with two successful applicants selected in May. The second round opened in June (now closed), with two donations awarded in September.

The Foundation is not currently accepting applications for funding. Please look out for further updates and revisit this page when our next round of funding opens in 2026.
