The Hilton Fund

The Hilton Fund provides grants of up to £2,000 to support constituted community groups, voluntary groups, registered charities, and social enterprises in South Staffordshire (specifically the former Cannock Chase Rural District area). The fund aims to increase or enhance local services, provide local social or leisure activities, deliver services that might otherwise be unavailable, and relieve poverty or disadvantage for local people. Panel meetings are held to determine funding awards, with time-sensitive applications potentially considered outside usual panel dates at the discretion of donor advisors. Eligible costs include equipment, capital costs, and training costs. The fund will not support organizations with unrestricted annual income over £15,000 or more than one year's running costs in reserves, and organizations must have been established for at least 12 months with a proven track record of service delivery.
