Beaverbrook Foundation

The Beaverbook Foundation is a relatively recently formed (20 August 2013) Charitable Incorporated Organisation that is seeking to develop its grant-making portfolio.
The Foundation supports, exclusively, UK registered charities undertaking projects that acquire or upgrade physical assets such as buildings, fixtures and fittings, machinery, furniture and other equipment, for revenue costs and for special projects, with a particular emphasis on:
o The erection or improvement of the fabric of any church building;
o The purchase of books, papers, manuscripts or works of art;
o The care of the aged or infirm in the U.K; and
o The maintenance of heritage property.
The Foundation generally provides small grants to small organisations that will make a big difference.
Larger grants are also available and in its previous financial year several grants of £50,000 were awarded.
Most grants were for under £5,000, however.
A list of major awards is provided in the Foundation’s annual accounts.
In principle, the Foundation prefers some match funding to be in place and may award grants conditional on match funding being confirmed.
During the year ending 30 September 2016 the Foundation allocated £ 261,578 (2015: £54,200).
The Foundation will not normally consider grants to cover expenditure which has already been incurred or committed.
The application process is ongoing and interested applicants may apply at any time.
Application forms are available to complete online at the Foundation's website
