Find charitable grants without paying a fee

What this support is about

Charitable grants can sometimes help with essential goods, household needs or a specific personal circumstance.

What to check

Some charities accept direct applications while others only receive referrals through social workers or partner organisations. A charity register does not establish that grants are available.

Practical next steps

Check the charity's current programme, the application route and eligibility, and verify the organisation through the relevant national charity regulator before sharing personal information.
