GRANT AID
We operate four grant programmes

The Child Support Grant Scheme

Child support grants provide such items as cookers and other white goods, beds, bedding and essential items of furniture for children who are facing exceptional difficulties, which are impacting on their health or development. Grants are all made through agencies, and only when statutory sources have been explored.
Grants are available through us from Buttle funds and from funds provided by BBC Children in Need.

The School Fees Grant Scheme

We make school fee grants for children whose home life is precarious, and education in either the independent day or the state or independent boarding sector is the only solution to the child’s problems.

The Students and Trainees Grant Scheme

We help by providing grants to students and trainees for further education courses who otherwise would enter adult life without adequate qualifications or training for work

Access to the Future Grant Scheme
0ur grant scheme for young people not in employment, education or training (NEET) supports the most hard to reach 18 to 25 year olds who face multiple barriers to attainment.

The Access to the Future Grant Scheme pilot aims to fund innovative solutions to support young people throughout 2010/11 to achieve their goal of moving back into employment, education or training.
