Key takeaways

  • The foundation's stated purpose is general: donations to charitable institutions, with no restriction on the country where a recipient works, so a charitable institution can check its fit against that purpose alone.
  • The annual report shows £484,461 paid in its most recent year, but it gives no grant range and no typical size, so a grant writer should not assume a particular amount.
  • No application process is published, so the contact shown in the annual report or on the register entry is the place to start, and no deadlines or cycle dates are given.
  • Trustees decide recipients at regular meetings, so timing depends on when they next meet.
  • The annual report does not say how competitive the giving is, and no exclusions are published, so no type of organisation can be ruled out from the information available.

Priority Areas

The foundation makes donations to charitable institutions for general charitable purposes. It places no restriction on the country in which a recipient charity operates, so its stated giving is not confined to a particular country. The trustees decide which charitable institutions receive donations at regular meetings. Its stated approach is therefore to consider charitable institutions and decide recipients through recurring trustee meetings, rather than to describe a narrower subject area, location, organisation size or application route. The information available does not set out further organisation types or priorities.
