Key takeaways

  • The charity's stated priority is the Hereford area, and it says it funds projects there mainly through donations to local charities, so a Hereford-based project fits its focus most clearly.
  • The annual report records £334,865 paid out, but the grant range is not stated, so the published figures do not show what a realistic request would be.
  • No way to apply is published, so a short enquiry to the charity before writing a full application is the sensible first step.
  • Neither the annual report nor the other material about the charity says anything about timing, deadlines or how many applicants it receives.
  • Its purposes are broad and no exclusions or eligibility rules are stated, so no group should assume it is closed to them on the information available.
