Grant priority areas
The Trust has three main funding themes, and welcomes cross-theme applications if you meet more than one area we support.
Social grants
The Trust funds innovative and catalysing Social projects, where the Trust tends to be a ‘first funder’. Social grants are primarily awarded for under-funded causes, rather than those with higher profiles that gain a lot of public attention and may find it easier to attract funding.
Medical grants
The Trust funds medical projects that are practical and capable of clinical application within five-to-ten years. They may include a social or ethical element.
Religious grants
The Trust funds ground-breaking, practical ecumenical projects in the UK. The Trust is committed to advancing Christian religion, but also welcomes applications from other faith communities.
