James
Tudor Foundation
The Foundation
was established in 2004,and is a grant-giving charitable organisation
established for the relief of sickness.
The Foundation
makes grants, gifts or loans within its area of benefit, principally
to organisations that can maximise the effectiveness of its
donations.
It is
a charitable trust which makes small grants in the U.K.
What
is the funding for?
They make
grants for charitable purposes, usually in the UK, across
six programme areas:
• Palliative care
• Medical research
• Health education, awards and scholarship
• The direct relief of sickness
• The UK independent healthcare sector
• The fulfilment of our charitable objects by other
means
They
will not give grants:
• that directly replace, or negatively affect, statutory
funding
• for work that has already taken place
• for endowment funds
• for economic, community development or employment
use
• for adventure or residential courses, expeditions
or overseas travel
• for sport or recreation uses, including festivals
• for environmental, conservation or heritage causes
• for animal welfare
• from applicants who have applied to us within the
last 12 months.
More directly supporting the following :
- Direct
project support
This is the most successful area for funding requests.
- Research
We will fund research where its aims match our objects and
where we consider that it is likely to have a beneficial
impact.
- Awards
and scholarships
We will occasionally fund awards and scholarships where
they demonstrate that they contribute to the Foundation’s
areas of benefit.
- Building
or refurbishment projects
The Foundation is less likely to make grants towards capital
projects (i.e. buildings and refurbishment costs). However,
capital projects will be supported where clear benefit and
good management are demonstrable.
- Equipment
Items of equipment may be funded, particularly if part of
a wider proposal. You should contact us first if your proposal
includes requests for equipment funding.
- Staffing
Staffing is occasionally supported. We would normally expect
to see a proposal where self-financing is indicated within
three years.
How
much money is available?
No amount specified. They aim to make decisions on grants
of £5,000 and under within one month of receiving your
application. Decisions on grants over £10,000 will normally
be made within four months.
Who
can apply?
The purpose for which you are applying must be legally charitable
and your constitution must allow you to carry out the work
you propose. They would prefer your organisation to be a registered
charity.
