Elgar Family Charitable Trust
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Elgar Family Charitable Trust's stated purpose is broad: its trustees choose which charities or charitable purposes to support, so a small nonprofit does not need to fit a defined field to be considered.
- Its giving is small, at £1,000 paid in the latest year the annual report covers, so a modest request is more realistic than a large one.
- No geographic focus is stated, although the annual report shows its grants mainly in Worcestershire; that is a pattern in its past giving, not a rule about who may apply.
- No application process is published, so the sensible first step is to use the contact shown for getting in touch and ask whether it accepts approaches, since no deadlines or grant range are given.
- Nothing stated excludes any type of organisation, so no group is ruled out on the available information.

Its stated purpose is to support any charity or further charitable purpose chosen by its trustees, and its governing arrangements allow donations to charitable institutions.

What they fund
Profile based on the charity's Charity Commission register entry and annual report (year to 5 April 2025) only: no website or other web source for the charity was found. Every statement is checked against them. Sources read on 24 October 2026.
Priority Areas
The trust’s stated object is to support any charity or further charitable purpose chosen by its trustees. Its governing arrangements also allow donations to charitable institutions, with trustees deciding how to apply income not fully directed by the founder. The report records a commitment to fund any shortfall requirements at The Firs and one grant to a festival; the report gives no purpose for that grant. The available material therefore describes broad charitable discretion and a commitment concerning the site, rather than a defined field or a narrower class of eligible organisations. It does not identify a specific geographic grant area or general grant size.
Geographic Focus
No geographic focus is stated; the annual report shows grants mainly in Worcestershire.
How to apply
