The Woodward Charitable Trust’s Children’s Summer Playscheme fund awards grants of up to £1,000 to small local playschemes that provide a wide-ranging programme of activities to children between 5-16 years old.
The Trust prioritises:
- small local playschemes that provide a wide-ranging programme of activities. Trustees prefer activities that are relatively inexpensive such as crafts and cooking, as well as outdoor activities and sport
- schemes that involve a large number of children
- schemes catering for children from disadvantaged backgrounds or who are disabled
- schemes where past users are encouraged to come back and help as volunteers
The Trust is unable to fund:
- trips that are only social such as to a theme park or cinema. Trustees prefer to fund trips that are educational and motivational or relate to the natural environment such as to the seaside or countryside
- charities whose annual turnover exceeds £100,000
- overseas projects
- playgroups
- individuals in any capacity
- educational fees
Only programmes that run for a minimum of two weeks or ten days across the summer holidays can apply.
Grants can only be paid to registered charities. If you are not a registered charity, please give full name and address of a registered charity who has agreed to accept a grant on your behalf. Please note, a copy of their most recent audited accounts will need to be included in the application.
