Overview
The objectives of The Edgar E Lawley Foundation are for general charitable purposes within the categories of
- Hospices,
- Children & Young People,
- Elderly,
- Community,
- Disabled and
- Medical Research/Other.
Its area of benefit is to any charity or not for profit organisation within the United Kingdom.
The Foundation’s preference is to award unrestricted grants to smaller charities and not for profit organisations.
Applicants should be aware that the Foundation receives over 1,0000 applications per year for grants but in a normal year can only fund perhaps 100 to 125.
In 2025/26 the total annual grants programme will be between £150,000 to £200,000 with successful grantees each receiving £2,000 each.
No additional supporting information other than that requested on the on-line application form is required.
