Live and Learn
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Live and Learn's stated themes are youth recreation, youth development and adult study support, so work in those areas is the clearest match, and the charity also says it provides buildings, facilities or open space.
- The annual report gives one total of £164,974, which may include grants to individuals, and it does not give a grant range, so a realistic request size cannot be worked out from what is published; a modest, clearly costed ask is the safest starting point.
- Its registered area of operation is Haringey and Hackney, which may help you judge whether your work is nearby, though no geographic focus is stated and this is not a rule about who may apply.
- No publicly published process was found in the annual report or the register entry, so the sensible first step is to write to the charity and ask how it takes requests before preparing a full application.
- Nothing published sets out exclusions or eligibility rules, so no group should be ruled out on what is published, and how competitive or timed its giving is remains unknown.
