About Weavers Company Benevolent Fund
Grants are available for organisations which support people in trouble. The three Priorities are:
- Young Offenders - projects that involve the rehabilitation of young offenders.
- Ex-Offenders - projects that help ex-offenders of all ages.
- Disadvantaged Young People - prevent young people offending in the first place. Projects that help young people make better life choices and fulfil their potential.
Key Criteria
Grants are normally awarded for one year only. The preference is to:
- Support small organisations. Local organisations, such as those working in a village, estate or small town, should normally have an annual income of less than about £100,000.
- Pump-priming new projects, especially those that are innovative and can serve as a model elsewhere.
Funding Limit
Grants of up to £15,000 per annum may be awarded, but smaller applications are also welcomed.
