Key takeaways

  • The funder's main focus is supporting school education at two schools, Charlton House School in Southampton and St Francis Xavier's School in Liverpool, so a group whose work sits outside school education is unlikely to fit.
  • Southampton and Liverpool are the geographic focus it gives, though that is a stated focus, not a rule on who may apply.
  • No application process is published, so the sensible first step is to use the contact shown and ask how it considers requests before writing a full proposal.
  • Its annual report gives no grant range, so keep any request modest and tie it closely to school education rather than sizing it from a typical grant.
  • No timing is published, so ask rather than assume a deadline.
