In particular we wish to help organisations to whom other funds are not readily available, and we prefer to support small organisations rather than long-established, large or national organisations.

Although we prefer to fund specific projects, posts or activities which have clearly defined outcomes, we will consider providing core funding particularly in the case of very small organisations. We will not normally support general funding appeals.

We make grants to organisations twice a year (April and October). We can consider urgent applications at other times.
