Key takeaways

The Evergreen Care Trust gives Stamford and the surrounding area as its priority, and its stated priorities are subsidised services, support for members in financial hardship, and developing new or improved care services for older and vulnerable people, so a project in those areas is the best fit to test.
No application process is published in the annual report, the register entry or its website, and the published material does not describe an open grant programme or set out who may apply, so the contact shown for getting in touch is the clearest route and an enquiry there is the sensible first step.
Neither the annual report nor the register gives a grants figure or a grant range, so a realistic request size cannot be judged from the funder's record and should be discussed directly.
The Trust describes sharing resources, knowledge and experience with partner colleagues, so a partnership-based approach may suit it better than a cold application.
No timing is stated, so ask when it considers new work.
