Overview

The Boshier-Hinton Foundation exists to improve quality of life for people with disabilities or learning difficulties, and their families, in any part of the country, by making donations to charitable institutions providing facilities and advocacy for children and adults with special educational or other needs: or by making donations to other registered Charities: or by making donations to local community charities or other agencies in any part of the country whose objects are no wider than the charity's own, or to any charity for particular purposes which fall within the Foundation's objects.

Objects of the Boshier-Hinton Foundation

  • To provide relief for children and adults with special educational or other needs, and their families, in any part of the country.
  • To make donations to institutions providing facilities and advocacy for children and adults with special educational or other needs.
  • To make donations to other registered Charitable Trusts.
  • To make donations to local community charities or other agencies in any part of the country whose objects are no wider than the charity's own, or to any charity for use for particular purposes, which fall within the charity's objects.

Requests to support projects which are innovative and developmental, are particularly welcomed.

The Foundation looks favourably on projects undertaken in partnership with other funding contributors, although grants of 100% are considered.

The Foundation attaches much importance to the assessment and dissemination of the results of work it has funded, so that others might benefit.

All organisations that are awarded a grant must confirm that they have in place Health and Safety, Vulnerable Persons, DBS, and Equal Opportunities policies, as appropriate.
