Next Grant Deadlines: 10th September, 2012
The Philip Henman Trust offers grants to major UK-based charities concerned with overseas development and which require partnership funding for projects lasting between three and five years. These grants are split into annual payments (normally between £3,000 and £5,000 P.A.) with a maximum total of £25,000. On being approved the organization, will be guaranteed an annual grant for the duration of the project, as long as receipts and reports are sent back to the Trust in the way that is specified.
The organization cannot apply for a further grant in respect of that project if a grant has been awarded for a particular project. The Trust has limited funds and so, on average, can only commit to two new long- term grants a year. Therefore, it is important for you to ensure that any project fits our criteria before applying.
Successful applications are normally those that prove the following:
· The project is being run professionally by an established major UK- registered charity (normally defined as having an income of over £100,000 PA)
· The project is concerned with long- term overseas development
· The project will start no more than six months before the start of our funding and will run for no more than five years. We do not fund ongoing concerns
· The funding from the Philip Henman Trust is important to the project (we normally require that our grant covers between 20% and 80% of the total project budget)
· The project will provide a lasting beneficial impact for the people, communities or environment it seeks to help
· The project is being partly funded by other sources. Voluntary work and central- office administration costs can be counted as another source of funding
