The Cole and Figg Charitable Trust

Registered charity 1205275 · since 2023·England, Wales·Updated 30 October 2026

Key takeaways

  • Your work fits if it supports projects, or the retraining of individuals for new careers or educational opportunities, since those are the only groups the trust is recorded as funding.
  • No grant range or annual giving figure is available, and no geographic focus is stated, though its registered area is throughout England and Wales, so there is no basis for a size estimate; keep any request modest and tied to a specific project or training route.
  • No application process is published, so check the Charity Commission register entry and make a short, direct enquiry to the trust before writing a full proposal.
  • Nothing published shows how it chooses between applicants or when it decides, so plan for an uncertain timeline.
  • Charities whose work does not involve projects, career change or education should not apply.
