Key takeaways

  • The King's Trust Group makes its distributions to the other charities in its own group, under agreed distribution criteria, so a charity outside that network should not expect funding from it.
  • If your work is in education, employment or enterprise for young people aged 11–30, it matches the group's programmes, but that match only counts if your organisation is one of its member charities.
  • No way to apply was found in the annual report, its register entry or its website, so there is no open route to approach.
  • The annual report records £4,012,000 paid out, but the register does not confirm that scale and no grant range is stated, so do not plan around a particular request size.
  • Unless your organisation is already part of its network, spend your time on other funders.
