Headley Court Charity
Key takeaways
- Headley Court Charity's own purposes are rehabilitation, research into medical rehabilitation, and relief of hardship for serving, reserve and auxiliary members and veterans of the Armed Forces of the United Kingdom and their families, and its organisational grants go to armed forces charities whose purposes are comparable, principally rehabilitation, research and wellbeing.
- If your work falls outside those purposes, the charity says it does not fund them, so it is unlikely to suit you.
- The annual report gives no grant range, typical grant size or annual giving figure, so a realistic request cannot be judged from the annual report; the two grants named in its overview, £363,000 over three years for an Adaptive Ski Programme and £200,000 over five years for an additional horticultural therapist at DMRC Stanford Hall, are examples rather than a typical size.
- No application process is published in the annual report or its register entry, so the sensible first step is to contact the charity using the contact shown, as the annual report says nothing about timing or how competitive or relationship-led its giving is.
