General guidelines for applicants | How to apply | What happens next |
 General guidelines for projects we can support  
  • New projects starting up which can demonstrate that they will provide an effective response to real needs
  • Youth clubs receive a specific mention in Wade's Scheme and we are committed to their continued support 
  • Non-discrimination - Trustees ensure that fairness in funding is maintained and equal opportunities are observed
  • Match funding - Trustees may authorise grants on the basis that the applicant matches the grant or finds the balance elsewhere, this is particularly pertinent to applicants seeking large sums for capital projects
  • Local causes - Trustees prefer to support local charities, the objective remains to ensure that the Charity's limited resources are used effectively for local projects
  • Holiday schemes continue to be supported in keeping with the general recreational nature of the charity's objects
