Tony Rampton Trust
At a glance
Key takeaways
- The trust's stated purpose is mainly to help current and former staff of Freemans Plc, Grattan Plc and Freemans Grattan Holdings and their families, and to fund charities that staff are involved with or have recommended, plus the Former and Retired Staff Associations.
- If your organisation has no link to those staff or associations, it is unlikely to fit this trust.
- Where a link exists, a modest request fits: about 8 in 10 of the 25 grants to organisations in the annual report fall between £1,000 and £6,000, with a median of about £1,850, though the largest was £13,000.
- The annual report does not say how to apply and gives no geographic focus, so you will need to check the application route yourself before you write.
