Residential homes for older people, almshouses and hospices (for children and adults) 

The Charity awards grants for special projects, equipment and running costs. The level of grant is entirely at the discretion of the Trustees.

Applications are considered twice yearly and distributions are made in late May/early June (Spring) and at the end of November (Autumn). Applications for the Spring distribution should be received no later than 15 March and for the Autumn no later than 15 September.

We ask that no more than one application be made in each twelve months so if you are awarded a grant at the Autumn distribution, you should not make a further application until Autumn the following year.

Applications can be made by completing a simple online form. Organisations will need to register before being able to submit online applications. Before registering and applying, please read our Guidelines for Organisations.
