Osmani Trust
At a glance
Key takeaways
- The Trust's stated themes are youth provision and violence prevention, and it also funds community development, education and recreation, and the health and social welfare of local people, so a group already working with young people in disadvantaged communities is the closest fit.
- Its annual giving is £30,000 and its grant range is not stated, so a modest request is the only size its register entry supports.
- Neither its annual report, its register entry nor its website describes a way to apply, so contact the Trust directly to ask whether it accepts approaches before writing a full application.
- Nothing in its annual report, its register entry or its website says how competitive its giving is or when it decides, so raise timing in that first contact.
- Neither its annual report, its register entry nor its website sets out any exclusions or eligibility rules, so no group is ruled out, but groups whose work falls outside its stated focus of London and the world should check that fit first.
