Grants for organisations

Grants for schools and other organisations

Our grantmaking priorities are:

  • Helping schools and other groups to buy equipment for the benefit of children.
  • Supporting extra curricula activities for children and young people. For example, school trips, after school clubs, holiday clubs, uniformed organisations.
  • Helping organisations which provide educational opportunities to schools and colleges in the Borough of Southwark. For example, visiting theatre companies and musicians.

We will usually visit organisations to ensure that the scheme is viable. However, with only £100,000 a year to give in grants, it is unlikely that we will ever fully support a project, and involvement of other grant-giving bodies is usually needed.

We are unable to guarantee continuing support to projects, and for this reason, are unwilling to take responsibility for funding the cost of salaries and administration.

You can apply for a grant only once in any 12-month period.
