Europe Trust
At a glance
Key takeaways
- If your work sits in education, health care, social welfare or recreation, the Trust's stated priorities fit well, and it says it especially supports ethnic minority groups struggling to provide basic community services.
- The grant range is not stated, and annual giving of £66,396 per the annual report is modest overall, so a small, specific request is more realistic than a large one.
- Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, so there is no set deadline, but applicants must meet the Trust's criteria.
- Organisations whose work does not abide by the laws and regulations of the land should not apply, as the Trust does not fund those applications.
- Nothing describes how competitive the process is or whether existing relationships matter, so check the Trust's application process before you write.
