northern rock foundation

Northern Rock Foundation is an independent grant-making organisation. We were formed in 1997, when the Northern Rock Building Society converted to a plc, to recognise the commitment of Northern Rock to the community from which it draws its strength.

We receive, by covenant, approximately 5% of Northern Rock plc's pre tax profits each year.

The Foundation is fully independent of Northern Rock plc and our own Board of Trustees determines our policies.

We aim to ensure that those who are eligible to apply know about us and that we treat all applicants sensitively and fairly. Over time we hope to reach as many disadvantaged groups and others who can benefit from our grants as possible.
