Overview

The Fishmongers' Company is pleased to accept Grant Applications in the fields of:

  • Education in Prisons
  • Mental Health
  • Food and Nutrition

A priority area for Fishmongers’ funding within the field of mental health is currently suicide prevention. Within the area of food and nutrition, they have a focus on projects benefitting children and young people from low-income backgrounds, as well as work focused on skills development and training in catering and around healthy eating. In the areas of Food & Nutrition and Mental Health, their preference is to fund projects in select London Boroughs. Please see the eligibility criteria below for more information. They continue to fund projects for Education in Prisons, both in and outside London.

Eligibility

An application will only be considered where it meets the following criteria:

  • Submitted by a Registered Charity, Social Enterprise or Community Interest Company
  • Clearly identifies key objectives and measurable outcomes
  • Is made by the organisation delivering the activity, service or project. i.e. applications cannot be made on behalf of a third party
  • From an organisation whose annual income is not below £100,000 and does not exceed £5,000,000
  • Requesting funding for a specific project rather than for general funds

In the case of Mental Health and Food & Nutrition applications, for activity taking place within the City of London and the Boroughs of Camden, Hackney, Islington, Lambeth, Southwark, Tower Hamlets, Newham or Westminster.

N.B.  They historically have received many more applications than they are able to fund. Thus, whilst many applications might fit the criteria, not all will be successful.

Please be advised that applications which do not fulfill the preferred criteria are highly unlikely to be successful.

How much do they fund?

Applications at this time will be considered for between £15,000 and £30,000 per annum, agreed in principle for up to three years, i.e. up to £90,000 in total spread over three years. In the case of multi-year grants, years 2 and 3 are provisional and successive payments will be made following a satisfactory annual review of the funded work and an organisation’s most recent accounts.
