Key takeaways

If your work is youth education or developing young people's skills through leisure-time activity, this funder may fit, but only if you are a charitable organisation whose objects include that work and you are in the area of benefit, which the annual report does not define, so check this point there.
Individuals under 25 may apply only if they are connected with the specified ancient parishes and need financial help while preparing for a profession, trade, occupation or service.
The annual report gives no grant range and no annual grants figure, so you cannot tell what size of request is realistic, and a modest, clearly costed request is the safest starting point.
The application method could not be established, so confirm how to apply through the annual report before you write, and do not assume any timing or competitiveness.
Organisations whose objects do not include education or development of under-25s through leisure-time occupation should not apply.

Priority Areas

The parish's stated work centres on advancing the Christian faith through worship, discipleship, community engagement and justice. The report also records the Thomas Dickinson purposes: assisting people under 25 connected with the specified ancient parishes who need financial help while preparing for or pursuing a profession, trade, occupation or service, and promoting their education and social and physical training. It also permits financial assistance to charitable organisations in the area of benefit whose objects include educating under-25s or improving their lives by developing their capacities through leisure-time occupation. The stated purposes therefore cover both individual support and financial assistance to eligible organisations.
