The Hilden Charitable Fund - UK Programmes

Opening soon

The aim of the Fund is to address disadvantages, notably by supporting causes which are less likely to raise funds from public subscriptions or statutory sources. They support work at a community level.Current funding priorities are:- Asylum Seekers and Refugees: support organisations and projects which provide essential services; which help meet their needs; and which support their integration within the wider community.- Penal Affairs: support work "through the door" where organisations go into prisons with projects and support to help prisoners (especially women) cope and/or maintain family bonds and to be better able to resettle positively when released. Also support post-release projects which support positive resettlement and a reduction in the likelihood of reoffending.You cannot apply if you are currently a grant holder and your grant is not due to end until 2024.
