Funding for UK charities working in Africa and the Indian sub-continent

The Beatrice Gilmore Charitable Trust funds UK registered charities that are looking to run locally led projects in Africa and the Indian sub-continent. The projects we support help communities address the issues that are creating vulnerability and marginalisation.

Please do look at our funding priorities and Grant-making Policy to see if your project would be a good fit for us. You can read more on our application process and our Principles of Participatory Practice. We realise your resources are limited and, as we only have a small pot of funding to distribute, please do not apply unless you meet our criteria.

We are not currently accepting any new applications for the next funding round while we review our grant-making processes. We will open our application window again later in the year so please do check back on here from 1st December onwards.
