Key takeaways

The trust's stated policy is to make large single grants rather than many smaller ones, so a small nonprofit should frame one substantial request and should not expect a modest top-up to fit.
The annual report gives no usable grant figures or range, so ask the trustees what size would be considered before writing a full case.
Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, so there is no deadline to plan around.
Its stated priority is Leicester and its themes are religious activities and education, so a project in those areas is the clearest match, though its eligibility wording covers individuals and institutions that may apply within its objects.
Submit a formal written application setting out the reasons for the grant.
