One-off project grants, usually for between £200 and £2,000, are available to smaller UK registered charities with an annual income of £150,000 or less that are working with disadvantaged children aged 25 and under.
The Magdalen Hospital Trust promotes the welfare of children and young people under the age of 25 who suffer from various effects of social deprivation, abuse, mental and physical handicap, inadequate housing, lack of education or training, and the problems derived from unemployment and lone parent families.
The Trust prefers to support small community groups with an element of trained volunteers and self-help who are carrying out practical work in front-line situations.
Applicants should be working with vulnerable children and young adults, especially those at risk of sexual and other forms of exploitation.
Grants are awarded for projects rather than core costs. Examples of the type of project that could be supported include (please note this is not an exclusive list):
- Counselling services for young people
- Mental health support
- Personal development and training opportunities, and
- Play schemes
One-off grants for between £200 and £2,000 are available to small UK registered charities with an annual income of under £150,000 (this was previously £100,000).
Please note that funding is not available for national charities.
