The Yapp Charitable Trust make grants to small registered charities to sustain their existing work with:

• elderly people
• children and young people aged 5 - 25
• people with disabilities or mental health problems
• people trying to overcome life-limiting problems of a social, rather than medical, origin - such as addiction, relationship difficulties, abuse, a history of offending

They also make grants to sustain small registered charities' existing work in the fields of:

• education and learning (with a particular interest in people who are educationally disadvantaged, whether adults or children)
They are not able to fund work which does not come into one of the above categories

They give grants for running costs and salaries for up to three years. Grants are normally for a maximum of £3,000 per year.Most of their grants are for more than one year because they give priority to ongoing needs.In 2009 they expect to give £300,000 in about 50 grants.
