The Wolfson Foundation

The Wolfson Foundation awards grants to support and promote excellence in the fields of science and medicine, the arts and humanities, education and health and disability.

Charities and organisations with charitable status (or equivalent) can apply for grants to fund capital projects, such as buildings or refurbishment and equipment. Capital projects that offer training, education and employment are also applicable. The Foundation does not specify a maximum amount organisations can apply for and operates a two stage process. Those applicants successful in Stage 1 will be invited to progress onto the second.

Deadline: Continuous rolling programme. The Wolfson Foundation runs two funding rounds each year:

Round 1

Open to Stage 1 applications: 20 November

Round 2

Open to Stage 1 applications: 14 May
Stage 1 application deadline: 1 July
Stage 2 application deadline: 1 September (by invitation only)

If a deadline date falls during a weekend, applications that arrive by 9am on the following Monday will be accepted.
