About

The Spalding Memorial Educational Trust was founded by Mr and Mrs H N Spalding in the 1920s to promote a better understanding between the great cultures of the world by encouraging the study of the religious principles on which they are based. The Trust awards grants for the study of recognised religious traditions, supporting ethical, philosophical and religious education through inter-religious study to promote mutual understanding and respect. Grants of generally no more than £3,500 support graduate students studying comparative religion, travel to conferences, study of religions in countries where they are practised, and library book acquisitions.

Funding Opportunities

The Ellen Rebe Spalding Memorial Fund

The Ellen Rebe Spalding Memorial Fund was established by H. N. Spalding within the Spalding Trust in memory of his mother. Historically, many grants from this Fund have been used to help disadvantaged women and children in Oxfordshire, where the family lived and worked. Today the objects of this Fund are twofold: to help disadvantaged women and children to adjust more easily to the pressures of modern life, and to promote those conditions of society that will enable people of different cultures and faiths to understand and appreciate one another. Trustees mostly make grants to help women and children with practical aids for the home, or in relevant cases, medical/educational equipment. The Trust has roughly £2,000 a year to give in grants and often makes about four grants a year.
