UK registered charities seeking funding for projects that help children and young people recover from Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), plus support parents affected by ACEs, mental illness or addiction can apply for grants of up to £25,000 from early January 2026.
Applications will be considered from UK-registered healthcare charities with an annual income below £20 million and at least five years’ audited or independently examined accounts. Charities can be either regionally or nationally based.
Projects should be evidence-based, trauma-informed interventions that will overcome and prevent ACEs. The programme supports children and young people affected by ACEs, plus parents (to help break the cycle of trauma across generations).
The funding is flexible, designed to contribute towards overall service delivery. However, grants can also be made for a specific project.
For further details including eligibility criteria, visit the Foundation website.
Grants are available for small to medium-sized charities registered and working in the UK that defend human rights and promote respect for vulnerable individuals.
Funding is available to VCSE organisations to explore ideas to improve health, wellbeing, or community services through research - with interest in exploring the intersection of mental health & health inequalities.
Grant funding of up to £10,250 is available for eligible community and voluntary organisations to set up and deliver the DofE, as well as the enrolment costs for young people taking part.
