The Foundation is interested in funding work which benefits people in the following groups, or generalist work which includes significant numbers from more than one such group:
Asylum-seekers and refugees (but not groups working with a single nationality) Gay, lesbian, bi-sexual or transgender people Gypsies and Travellers, Migrant workers, Offenders and ex-offenders, Older people, People experiencing mental health problems, People experiencing violence or abuse.
There is a 2 stage application process. Applications take between 2 and 6 months to process fully. The grants are relatively modest. Single, one-off grants range from as little as £500 up to £15,000. Grants repeated for more than one year vary from about £500 per annum up to £5,000 per annum, for a maximum of three years.
