The Joseph Rank Trust
Overview
- The Trust funds one-off grants for capital expenditure or three-year grants for core costs/project funding.
- Ensure you have other sources of funding or can match any funding the Trust might provide (not applicable for capital grants). Audited accounts and detailed budgets will need to be submitted.
- There is no typical grant as each application is considered on its own merits.
Who can apply
The Trustees can only consider applications from registered charities as registered with the Charity Commission of England and Wales; OSCR in Scotland; and the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland. If your Church or place of worship is an excepted or exempted charity you can apply (click here for further information). Grants cannot be paid to umbrella bodies or to third parties.
Further Information
On-going commitments, combined with the fact that the Trustees take an active role in identifying projects to support, means that it is not always possible to make grants in response to unsolicited applications.
The principle of matched funding (not applicable for capital grants) is very much part of any application - if in any doubt what this means please contact the Secretary. Please note the Trust is not a repeat or ongoing funder at the end of the funding term.
