One-off grants, generally for up to £500, are available to UK registered charities that are supporting people with a disability or with a long-term or terminal illness.
Reading, Berkshire-based grant-making charity, the R S Brownless Charitable Trust was known for its support for UK charities working with children and young adults. Its current charitable objectives are focused on:
- Disability.
- Deprivation.
- Long-term illness, and
- Terminal illness.
Most - but not all - donations are made to UK based charities. Awards are very occasionally made to overseas charities.
Grants are normally one-off awards up to £2,000, although the vast majority of donations are for up to £500.
The Trustees meet at least twice each year to review requests for grant support.
Applications may be made at any time in writing.
They do not have a website but further information is available on the Charity Commission website.
