The Foundation’s trustees are reviewing the priorities for our grant programmes for 2013 to 2015 and plan to tighten further the focus of the grant programmes. Full details will be announced in January 2013.
Any organisation planning to apply to the Foundation should contact the relevant Programme Manager before preparing an application. Potential applicants should be aware that the Foundation now concentrates on organisations it currently has a relationship with.
The Foundation is currently funding its grant programmes from its reserves, which are expected to be fully expended in 2015. However, the Foundation remains in discussion with Virgin Money regarding future arrangements.
