Total Value of Fund

The Trust’s total annual funding pot is not publicly specified in freely available sources. Details such as annual total awards are typically behind premium grant-finder services and not publicly disclosed.

Amount that can be applied for

There is no fixed funding amount publicly stated; applicants may request funding based on project needs, and awards are made at the discretion of the Trustees.

Percentage that can be applied for

There is no fixed percentage funding rule publicly stated; applicants may request funding based on project needs, and awards are made at the discretion of the Trustees.

Who can apply

• Registered charities are eligible to apply. 
• The fund has a Scottish bias but is not exclusive to Scotland, meaning charities across the UK can apply, though Scotland’s issues and organisations are prioritised. 
• Applications from small non-profit organisations and start-ups are typically accepted, provided they operate on a not-for-profit basis and align with the Trust’s areas of interest. 

Aims of the fund

The Trust supports projects and organisations working in fields such as:
• Environmental conservation
• Human rights and social justice
• Arts and cultural activities
• Animal protection and related causes
It tends to prioritise groups campaigning for long term social or environmental change and those whose work may be difficult to fund from mainstream sources.

Timing

• Rolling intake: Applications can be submitted at any time, there are no fixed deadlines. 
• Decisions are made by the Trustees periodically throughout the year, typically after submission, though no published schedule is provided.

Examples of successful projects

Grants have been made to organisations such as Water of Leith Conservation Trust (e.g., around £2,000), indicating support for environment/conservation projects.
