The Austin and Hope Pilkington Trust works with UK registered charities that support their local community. With four grant rounds a year, they aim to give grants to those in society who face the greatest challenges and whose opportunities are most limited.
Round 1 is focused on people experiencing or at risk of homelessness.
Grants of £1000 are available to UK registered charities to support projects that provide life skills, including food education, healthy living and budgeting.
Priority will be given to people leaving the armed forces, leaving prison or care.
Applying charities must have an operating income between £100,000 and £1 million and only one application per charity per year is permitted.
