Mills and Reeve Charitable Trust
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Its stated themes are medical research, homelessness and disadvantaged people, so a charity working in those areas is the clearest fit.
- The trustees prefer causes local to the firm's offices, so a charity far from those offices should check whether its work has a local link before writing.
- The annual report gives annual giving of £320,500, but no grant range is published, so the size of a realistic request cannot be judged from the source.
- No application process is published, so use the contact shown on its register entry to ask how it takes requests and when it considers them.
