Guidelines for applications to the Jill Franklin Trust

The Jill Franklin Trust was set up in memory of Jill Franklin, 1928-1988, and has about £70,000 a year to spend.  Some this is already committed as a block grant for prisoners’ education that would not be funded by the government and to organisations we have promised grants over a number of years.


The Trust has decided to focus its funding on deprived areas of Great Britain and, looks with particular favour at applications from the North or England and from Wales.


Small charities are preferred, and simply prepared proposals are more likely to be accepted.


Areas the Trust funds:

Grants are typically £1,000 for one to three years (except for church restoration which is normally £500), and the trust has five areas for which it is soliciting grant applications:
