THE BROMLEY TRUST

Who they support

An independent grant-making trust that funds UK charities working on Human Rights or Prison Reform

Grant criteria

Our grant spend is in the region of £800k per year, and we usually have around 65 live grants at any one time. We make grants ranging from £5,000 to £20,000 per year, usually to small specialist charities with an annual income of between £100,000 and £1.5m.

Grant details

We have two grant programmes, Human Rights and Prison Reform, and are only able to accept applications for funding which fit our specific focus areas within these. We prefer to provide multi-year funding and like to develop close relationships with our grantees so we can provide support and help them to achieve their aims. We give unrestricted grants wherever possible. We believe this is the most useful type of funding for the charities we support as it offers flexibility and allows them to adapt as situations and priorities change. However we sometimes award restricted funding specifically towards one area of a charity’s work, for example when we support organisations running multiple projects where one or more of them falls outside of our focus areas.

Application procedure

If you are interested in applying to us for a grant, please check our eligibility criteria (what we do and don’t fund) and make sure that your work fits within one of our current grant programme focus areas first. If you want to go ahead with an application please also read the information on our process and time scales before completing the form: https://www.thebromleytrust.org.uk/apply-for-funding/
