Funding Opportunities
Grants for Registered Charities
The Thomas Wall Trust believes that communication skills are critical capabilities for people who want to improve their employment prospects, self-confidence, resilience, and life chances. The Trust offers grants up to £5,000 for specific projects that improve communication skills for disadvantaged adults and supports NEET people into employment. Beneficiaries must gain at least one accredited vocational qualification during delivery or within two months of project completion. The Trust is an inclusive charity, welcoming proposals which target people experiencing multiple deprivation or other groups demonstrably facing major hurdles to employment especially women, people with physical, mental, or learning disabilities and refugees. The Trust prioritizes match funded projects and self-sustainable projects which aim to become less reliant on grants in the future. Annual repeat funding is available for up to 3 years subject to satisfactory annual reviews of progress and impact.
Thomas Wall Trust Grants for Individuals
The Thomas Wall Trust individual grants programme supports motivated adults living in the UK to undertake education and training that will increase their chances of employment. The Trust offers grants up to £1,500 to undertake accredited vocational training up to level 3 and towards other costs associated with studying. Grantees may apply for course fees (up to £1,500) and/or costs associated with studying including childcare, travel and equipment (up to £750). The maximum grant award is £1,500. Individuals may re-apply if their course lasts for more than a year with evidence of successful progress. The programme prioritises applicants with little or no past work experience, lack of school qualifications, those taking courses not eligible for 19+ Advanced Learner Loan, and Access Courses. The Trust particularly values applications that demonstrate a realistic plan to seek employment and courses that provide support and advice into employment.
