Key takeaways

  • Your work fits if it gives maximum benefit to the welfare of uniformed service personnel and their dependent family members while they serve under the Commander British Forces Gibraltar, because the Trust does not fund grants that fall short of that.
  • Its stated focus is Gibraltar, and it accepts applications on a rolling basis.
  • Complete its form with as much detail as possible, since requests are reviewed at quarterly trustee meetings, so allow for the next one in your timing.
  • No grant range is given, so ask the Trust what size of request suits it before setting a figure.
  • Organisations whose work does not serve those personnel should not apply.
