The Fitzwilliam Wentworth Amenity Trust
At a glance
Key takeaways
- The Trust's geographic focus is the village of Wentworth, and its grants cover education, social welfare, leisure, heritage conservation, housing, sport and recreation, and environmental conservation, so a project should clearly serve people there and fit one of these areas.
- Typical grants fall between £100 and £5,000, and the annual report gives £13,947 awarded in total, so a modest, specific request suits it best.
- Applications are rolling and made as specific written applications, so you can apply at any time, but grants must be used for their stated purpose within a reasonable time, usually six months, so plan a project that can be finished in that window.
- How competitive the Trust is, and whether it favours existing relationships, is not clear, so make a clear written case and check the annual report for more detail before you write.
