Key takeaways

  • Its stated themes are education, social protection, health and medical aid, water solutions and emergency relief, so a small charity whose work sits in one of these areas is the clearest fit, and its stated priority is the Indian Sub-Continent and the UK, though it describes its geographic focus as worldwide.
  • The charity's register entry records annual giving of £2,125,032, but no grant range is stated, so that total alone does not show what a single request might be, and any amount should be checked against what this funder is known to give.
  • No application process is published in the annual report, the register entry or its website, so the sensible first step is to use the contact shown on its website to ask whether it accepts approaches and what it needs.
  • Nothing in the available information states how competitive its giving is or whether relationships matter, so prepare a clear written case that explains how your work fits the listed themes.
