Key takeaways

If your work is palliative or end-of-life care, or training for health and social-care staff, in North Northamptonshire, this trust's stated priority area matches it.
Neither its annual report nor its register entry gives a grants total or a typical grant size, so you cannot judge a realistic request from published figures; a short enquiry through the contact shown on its website is the safest first step.
No application process is published, so ask how to apply before you write a full proposal.
Its published material does not say how competitive its funding is or whether it works through introductions, so treat the first approach as exploratory.
