The Blackwood Engineering Trust Grant

The Blackwood Engineering Trust provides grants to charitable organizations supporting children and young people in need by reason of poverty, bereavement, sickness or disability. Established in 2015, the Trust is financed by periodic contributions from Blackwood Engineering Ltd and focuses on projects in locations where the company operates. The Trust prioritizes projects that benefit children which have little funding from statutory bodies, projects largely run by voluntary organisations, and projects helping sick, disabled and orphaned children. Applications are generally awarded grants between £500-£2,000, although larger grants may be considered in exceptional circumstances. The Trust meets quarterly to review applications and make award decisions. All applications must be from locations where Blackwood Engineering operates in the UK, Belgium, China and India, or be submitted by Blackwood employees for any project.
