The R S Brownless Charitable Trust

The R S Brownless Charitable Trust is a Reading, Berkshire-based grant-making charity that provides one-off grants to UK registered charities supporting people with disabilities or with long-term or terminal illness. The Trust's current charitable objectives are focused on disability, deprivation, long-term illness, and terminal illness. Grants are normally one-off awards up to £2,000, although the vast majority of donations are for up to £500. Most donations are made to UK-based charities, though awards are very occasionally made to overseas charities. The Trustees meet at least twice each year to review requests for grant support. Applications may be made at any time in writing. The Trust was previously known for its support for UK charities working with children and young adults.
