Founded by the musician Mark Knopfler and his wife, the actress and writer, Kitty Aldridge Knopfler, in 1988, the Robyn Charitable Trust is a small grant-making charity that focuses its grant support on charities in the UK and overseas working in the areas of the welfare of children, particularly for the relief of need and education.
The charity’s objectives are:
- To continue to support children in need of education anywhere in the world, and
- Any other charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
The Trust doesn’t have a set minimum or maximum grant award levels. In the past, its grants have ranged from £100 to around £30,000. There appears to be no requirement for matched funding.
The Trust does not maintain a website. Further information about the Trust is available on the Charity Commission website.
