Decisions on grants for 2023

At their recent meeting, the trustees decided to make grants to the following charities, all of whom work with young people in London:
Eat Club
Grief Encounter
Ministry of Stories
Sal’s Shoes
Welcare
We were very impressed with the range of applications received this year, but sadly were not able to support all of the charities that applied. 

Each year, Sherborne in the Community invites applications from eligible charities for grants of up to £6,000. The grants are financed from our annual income and reserves. Grants can be designed for specific projects or, in certain circumstances, as contributions towards core activities.

The trustees decide which applications to support following a rigorous process that includes consideration of the submissions, interviews, feedback and discussion. 

We are pleased to have established long-term relationships with some charities, having supported them over several years. We welcome opportunities to find out more about the activities of grant recipients through reporting, visits and follow-up activities. 

We plan to open up the next grant application process in autumn 2023. Details will be announced on this website in due course.
​
We are also looking at other ways that we can support charities working with young people in London and hope to make an announcement in the next few weeks.
