Key takeaways

  • 22 North Foundation says it focusses primarily on underfunded and overlooked causes, so a request fits best if your work falls within biodiversity, the human rights of marginalised people, or societal infrastructure in the UK.
  • The annual report shows £975,000 awarded, and typical grants fall between £6,000 and £300,000, with a median of £120,000, so a request in that region is a reasonable starting point.
  • No application process is published, so the sensible first step is to use the contact shown in its published details to ask whether it would consider your work before sending anything formal.
  • The annual report shows its grants mainly in North Yorkshire and Northern Ireland, but no geographic focus is stated, so treat this as a pattern to note rather than a limit on who may apply.
  • Nothing available indicates how competitive or relationship-led its giving is, so approach it with that uncertainty in mind.
