This funder does not accept unsolicited applications. Don't spend time on an approach; the similar funders below support the same kind of work.
Key takeaways
- The Ampney Brook Foundation does not accept unsolicited requests, so a cold application is not the route in: it seeks out projects that deliver against its charitable objectives itself.
- Its stated themes are homelessness, food security, climate change, nature conservation, accountability and governance, and displaced people, with a stated priority on the UK and internationally, so check that your project clearly fits one of these before doing anything else.
- No grant range or typical grant size is stated, so you cannot size a realistic request from that; its annual giving of £787,217 is the only indication of scale.
- Timing and competitiveness are not stated, but because it is invitation-only, any approach is likely to depend on the foundation noticing relevant work rather than on an open deadline.
- Organisations whose work falls outside these themes, or that want to apply through an open process, should look at other funders.
