Any charitable organisation based in the UK is eligible to apply for a grant, as are any educational institutions (schools, universities, etc.) whether or not they are a registered charity.

If you are interested in making an application for a grant from the Foundation we recommend that you consult our Information for Applicants before submitting the form as this may increase the chances of your application proving successful.

SMALL GRANT PROGRAMME - update at 1st April 2026

Our Small Grant Programme is now closed.

Applications submitted in our March 2026 Small Grant funding round will be considered at our Trustees’ meeting on 22nd April 2026. Successful applicants will be contacted within two weeks of the meeting. As a small organisation with limited administrative resources, we do not routinely contact unsuccessful applicants.

Our next Small Grant funding round will be open from 1st to 31st August 2026. We have two Small Grant funding rounds each year – in March and August – and each will have a different focus on one or more of the Trustees’ key areas of interest.   Applications submitted within a grant round will automatically be rejected if they do not fit the focus of that grant round. The focus of our Small Grant funding rounds change each time.   We aim to post the focus of each Small Grant funding round on our website at least a month before it opens.

All applications for Small Grant funding must be submitted using the online application form which is accessible from our website during one of our Small Grant Programme application rounds.

If you have any queries regarding an application to our Small Grant Programme, please contact us on secretary@woodroffebenton.org.uk
