Range of Interests of the Blackburn Trust:

Work with children under 16

Within this Range of Interests, the Trust will be willing to consider help with:

Purchase of equipment
Support for groups who wish to make their services available to children with disabilities, whether learning or physical
Making premises accessible to those with physical disability
Provision or adaptation of space for the use of children

The Trust does not generally make grants to large voluntary organisations or where its grant would not be significant in the overall costs of the project, the priority being to assist smaller organisations

The Trust rarely makes grants of more than £1,000.00, a grant is unlikely to be made where the grant would be less than 10% of the total cost of the project. The average amount of grants is £600.

The Trust can make grants only to accepted charitable bodies.
