Stanley Grundy Foundation Grant

The Stanley Grundy Foundation (SGF) was founded in 1964 to support charities and voluntary bodies in a wide area of interests from Back Pain to Chess Education. The foundation makes about twenty five donations annually of between £2,000 and £5,000 each. These donations are generally targeted sums geared to specific projects or initiatives - rather than supporting general expenditure. SGF welcomes appeals from smaller specialised charities where these relatively small sums can make a real difference. The foundation operates with an emphasis on charities operating in or from the UK that especially embrace areas of Research, Innovation or Young People. Areas supported in recent years include UK Mental and Medical Research, developing a Sign Language GCSE, helpline provision for Young Carers, training for Surgeons in Disaster and War Zones, caring for Rough Sleepers and their Dogs, audio book libraries for Children's Hospitals, screening for Teenage Hidden Heart Conditions, social and legal help for Abused Women, caring for broken Families in Africa and Asia, and providing welcome packs for Refugee Children.
