Coles-Medlock Foundation Grants

The Coles-Medlock Foundation is a family grant-making organisation based in Bath, UK that awards grants to UK registered charities focusing on the empowerment and education of young girls, as well as women in commerce. The Foundation supports projects that demonstrate clear needs not currently being met, measurable impact in terms of numbers helped and degree of improvement to beneficiaries' lives, and sustainable financial planning. The Foundation is currently prioritizing girls in education and women in commerce, though it also supports international development projects in sustainable agriculture, healthcare, infrastructure development, and independent financial progress. When assessing applications, the Foundation requires charities to demonstrate why their work is needed, how they plan to address unmet needs, what impact the work will have, plans for measuring qualitative and quantitative outcomes, forecast budgets showing sustainability, and the charity's most recent annual report and accounts. Grant funding is provided for specific projects only, not for core costs.
