The Asgill House Trust
At a glance
Key takeaways
- The trust's work centres on preserving historic buildings, including listed buildings and their settings, so requests for building conservation, heritage, environmental or cultural activity are the closest fit.
- It paid £7,500 in total in its most recent annual report, and no grant range is stated, so a modest, specific request is more realistic than a large one.
- No application process is published, so the sensible first step is to contact the trust through the contact it publishes and ask whether a request would be considered before you write a full application.
- The annual report does not say how competitive its giving is or when it considers requests, so ask rather than assume.
- No exclusions or eligibility conditions are stated, so nothing in the published information rules out an applicant, but a request far from building preservation and related heritage work is unlikely to fit its stated focus.
