Banham Foundation
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Only charities registered with the Charity Commission, the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator or a successor regulator can apply, so an organisation that is not registered should not apply.
- Applications are rolling, and trustees consider written appeals on their individual merits at each trustee meeting and tell applicants their decision.
- The grant range is not stated, and the annual report's annual giving of £693,301 is the only guide to scale, so a modest, clearly costed request is the sensible starting point.
- No address, email or phone number is published for applications, and the material gives no sign of how competitive or relationship-led the foundation is, so check how to send the written appeal before you write.
