Small Grants

The Robertson Trust's Small Grants program provides unrestricted or restricted revenue funding for registered charities working in Scotland. The program supports organizations with annual incomes between £30,000 and £200,000 that assist people experiencing or at high risk of experiencing poverty and associated trauma. Funding ranges from £5,000 to £20,000 per year, typically for 3 years but may extend to 5 years for projects strongly aligned with priorities and demonstrating leading or best practice. Work must be clearly and intentionally aligned to priorities within one of the Trust's four funding themes: Financial Security, Education Pathways, Work Pathways, or Nurturing Relationships. Applications are considered on a rolling basis throughout the year. Funding can include costs of equipment to support the organization's work.
