Leeds Christmas Charity Lunch
At a glance
Key takeaways
- The annual report gives a total of £276,563 paid out, and that figure may include grants to individuals, so it should not be read as a typical grant size.
- The grant range is not stated and no typical band is given, so there is no published guide to how large a request should be.
- Its stated priority is Leeds City, which makes a Leeds-based group the clearest fit, though nothing published says other areas are excluded.
- No application process is published, so the sensible first step is to use the contact shown in the annual report and register entry to ask how beneficiaries are chosen.
- Its money comes from the Christmas Charity Lunch and goes to nominated beneficiaries, so it may be worth asking whether an approach can be made through a nomination.
