The Will Charitable Trust has announced that its grants programme will temporarily close to applications on the 15th November 2024.
The Trust offers grants of between £3,000 and £30,000 to UK registered charities providing:
• care of and services for blind people, and the prevention and/or cure of blindness
• long-term care of people with learning disabilities either: in a residential care or supported living environment in a way that provides a family environment and wide choice of activities and lifestyle; or: by providing long-term day/employment activities
• care of and services for people suffering from cancer and their families
Both project and, in some circumstances, unrestricted grants are available. Charities with an annual turnover of over £500,000 are eligible to apply.
This closure will allow the Trustees to review their strategy, with the revised programme expected to open around midsummer 2025.
Applications can be submitted up until the closure date. Useful Links:
