The Yapp Charitable Trust gives grants up to £9,000 for running costs and salaries to small registered charities in England and Wales to help sustain their existing work.
A summary of grant making:
- Grants only offered to registered charities with a total annual expenditure of less than £40,000
- No charities funded that do not focus specifically on one of our priority groups
- Only fund running costs
- Grants are normally for a maximum of £3,000 per year and funding can be for up to three years.
- Most grants are for more than one year because they like to fund ongoing needs
- Applicants that reflect the grant making policy have the best chance of success
Priority groups:
- Elderly people
- Children and young people aged 5 – 25
- People with physical impairments, learning difficulties or mental health challenges
- Social welfare – people trying to overcome life-limiting problems of a social, rather than medical, origin (such as addiction, relationship difficulties, abuse, offending)
- Education and learning (with a particular interest in people who are educationally disadvantaged, whether adults or children)
