Overview

They are always looking for ideas that help to deliver the kind of change they want to see and they have funds available from small grants of less than £5,000 up to large multi-year partnerships (the biggest is currently £370,000) for the very best of these.

LankellyChase know there is a lot of incredible work out there. However, they are looking for something specific. They want to support work that helps to change the fundamentals – not sticking-plaster solutions, no matter how many people they reach in the short term. They don’t make a lot of grants.

LankellyChase especially welcome ideas from people who have lived experience of severe and multiple disadvantage.

Severe and multiple disadvantage They aim to pursue a problem solving approach, and have therefore developed a theory of change to underpin their work. This is a ‘live’ document, and will evolve over time as their learning deepens. LankellyChase identify three types of change that they are trying to achieve: systemic, structural and cultural.

Partnerships

At Lankelly Chase they seek to build the capability of organisations to achieve change in our priority areas, they offer either project funding to enable organisations to pursue specific changes, or core funding to support the overall strategies of organisations that align with their priorities.

They create a network of pioneering practice whose aim is to promote more powerful ways of preventing and addressing disadvantage, and support coalitions where people experiencing multiple needs are listened to.

They aim to create a space within which severe and multiple disadvantage can be collectively analysed and discussed by people and organisations in different fields and disciplines.
