The Cambrian Education Trust
Key takeaways
- The trust's stated focus is education for children and young people aged five to eighteen, including families who want education with a Christian ethos, and its themes are children's education and Brethren charitable purposes, so work outside those areas is unlikely to fit.
- Its support is delivered through premises leased to an independent school and through donation funding to OSGUK at the Trustees' discretion, so there is no open grant route described for other organisations.
- No application process is published, and the only contact shown is for getting in touch, so a short enquiry is a sensible first step rather than a full proposal.
- Annual giving and grant range are not stated, so do not assume a size of award; the area given is Newton and Shrewsbury.
