Edward Gostling Foundation – Funding to Boost the Capacity of Charities

Capital grants of up to £250,000 are available to expand the capacity of UK registered charities and CIO’s working to improve the quality of life for people in need, particularly those living on very low incomes who have a disability or long-term illness.

The funding is made available by the Edward Gostling Foundation through their Capital Grant Programme.

This programme encourages organisations to bring forward major capital projects costing £1 million or more that align with one or more of the Foundation’s funding themes.

The funding themes are:

• Health and wellbeing,
• Independent living at home,
• Respite,
• Transition.

These projects should build new capacity, promote sustainability, and bring about a step change in the way care is delivered.

Grants will vary depending on the size and scope of the project. Organisations must have at least 50% of the project’s funding secured before submitting their application.

Applications are accepted from registered charities and charitable incorporated organisations with a minimum of 3 years filed accounts.

Applications can be submitted at any time. Decisions can take 90 days.
