Funding from The Garfield Weston Foundation

The Garfield Weston Foundation continue their offer of year-round Regular Grants and Major Grants with open deadlines, intended to fund core costs, capital projects, and specific activities.

All UK charities, CIOs, and similar organisations working in welfare, youth, community, arts, education, environment, health, heritage, and faith sectors are eligible to apply.

The Foundation also offers Capital Grants; Usually up to 10% of project cost, with around 50% funding already secured.

There are three main areas intended for the funding:

• Operating/Core Costs - to cover running costs such as salaries, rent, and utilities
• Capital Projects - to support building works, repairs, and essential equipment, and
• Specific Activities – to funds defined programmes or activities that have a clear timetable

At the time of writing, because submissions are reviewed by their Trustees on an ongoing basis, the Foundation says applications can be accepted at any time.

More information and how to apply can be found at the Foundation’s website.
