Key takeaways

  • Work that fits the Society's stated aims is the first test: it supports activity arising from Anthroposophy in areas such as education, agriculture, the arts, science, medicine and welfare, social science and philosophy, so a project should be able to show a clear link to those aims.
  • Its focus is primarily, but not exclusively, Great Britain, so a project based elsewhere is not ruled out, though it should expect the main focus to be here.
  • The annual report shows total giving of £80,166 but gives no typical grant size or range, so there is no basis for a particular request amount; keep any ask modest and tied to a specific activity.
  • No application route is published in the annual report, the register entry or its website, so check how to make contact before writing anything, and do not assume a standard form exists.
  • Nothing shows how competitive this funding is or whether it depends on existing relationships, so treat it as an open question rather than a sure source.
