The funding available to organisations changes each year - contact the Severn Trent Trust Fund office for up to date information; individual funding is available for people who are in hardship.

Organisational Grants

There are three main types of organisational grants available:

 

1) Revenue Funding - typically to help fund money advice or debt counselling service.

 

2) Capital Grants - applications for small capital items e.g. training aids/computer equipment can be submitted up to a maximum of £1,500.

 

3) Continuation Funding - applications for continuation funding of the project may be submitted within the final 6 months. This type of funding is not to continue current projects indefinitely but to enable, where appropriate, other funding to be sourced and agreed.
