M D C Jenks Charitable Trust

Registered charity 290256 · since 1984·England, Wales·Updated 29 October 2026

Key takeaways

  • The trust's objects allow support for any qualified charity or charities, and its stated focus is England and Wales, but no cause, beneficiary group or type of work is named, so fit is hard to judge from the register entry alone.
  • It describes its payments as modest, but no grant range is stated, so a small, carefully costed request is the safer approach than guessing at an amount.
  • No published application process was found, so check the register entry for contact details and consider a short enquiry before sending a full proposal.
  • The register entry says nothing on timing, on how competitive giving is, or on whether relationships matter.
  • The objects refer to 'qualified charities', so an organisation that is not a charity should check that it meets this test before applying.
