Overview

The Trust funds entirely at the discretion of the Trustees who meet six times around a year. Grants may reach as much as £4,000,000 in total each year.

Health and Community Care: Substantial HIV/AIDS projects in the UK and Africa, social exclusion, the sexual health of young people, and hospices
Arts and Heritage arts: Architectural and environmental projects of national or regional importance, including galleries, museums, and historic houses and gardens. Proposals are particularly welcome for cultural projects which will make a major contribution to improving economically depressed areas.
Criminal justice: Including prisoners resettlement, and alternatives to custody and homelessness

The Trustees continue to support a number of arts projects of national or regional importance. In other areas they prefer to help prove new ideas or methods that can be replicated widely and where possible become self-sustaining.

Proposals are generally invited by the Trustees or initiated at their request. Unsolicited applications are unlikely to succeed unless they closely match the areas in which the Trustees are interested. That said, in the Arts and Ileritage category they particularly wish to be made aware of significant appeals.
