Key takeaways

  • The trust says it gives primarily to local charities whose causes align with its key beliefs, so a group whose work clearly fits that local and belief-based focus is the best match, although its objects allow charitable purposes anywhere in the world.
  • Its listed geographic focus is worldwide, but its own description puts local causes first, so a group outside the local area should explain clearly how its work connects to the trust's stated aims.
  • No grant range is stated, and the only size guidance is that other donations are limited to small ones made by the Chairman, so a modest, specific request is the sensible starting point.
  • Trustees review requests at meetings every six months, so send yours well before you need the money, and note that some of its giving comes through recommendations from the Community Foundation for Surrey.
  • No public application process is published, so the annual report is the best place to check how the trust describes its giving before you apply.
