Ashworth Charitable Trust Grant Programme

The Ashworth Charitable Trust provides funding to registered charities in the United Kingdom for humanitarian purposes. The Trust is a small charity that holds biannual meetings in May and November to review applications. The Trust specifically supports registered UK charities with humanitarian missions, with a preference for organizations with annual turnover under £500,000 unless exceptional circumstances apply. Applications must be made online and the Trust operates with minimal administrative correspondence, informing successful applicants within six weeks of their biannual meetings. The Trust focuses on supporting small to medium-sized charitable organizations working on humanitarian projects, while explicitly excluding support for individuals, animal welfare, religious proselytisation, political activities, research, heritage projects, and most museums (except the Ironbridge Gorge Museum).
