The Royal Anglian Regiment Benevolent Charity
At a glance
Key takeaways
- This funder suits organisations that work with serving or former members of the Royal Anglian Regiment or its predecessor regiments, or with their spouses and dependants, who are in need, hardship or distress.
- The trustees apply an upper limit of £1,000 to each benevolent case, so a modest request fits.
- The annual report publishes no application process, so the sensible first step is to use the contact shown and ask how to apply.
- The Geographic focus line gives East Anglia as a priority, with wider East of England counties also listed, but that describes where the funder directs its work, not who may apply.
- Requests for people outside the Regimental family fall outside the benevolent purpose.

It also supports the Regimental chapels, memorials and museums across East Anglia and the East of England, and promotes the Regiment's efficiency in charitable ways chosen by the trustees.
