The Charles Hayward Foundation wish to fund preventative and early intervention programmes being delivered at the community level which allow older people to stay in their own homes and remain independent. The Foundation are interested in programmes which can demonstrate their effectiveness in improving the quality of life of older people. We favour projects that offer a consistent and sustained benefit rather than one-off events or short-lived activities.
The Foundation fund projects in the following sub-categories:
Funding for collaborations led by small charities seeking to influence change around improving the social security system, improving access to suitable accommodation, and support for asylum seekers and refugees.
The Foundation provides unrestricted grants to charities and CIOs to support their work that helps prevent and tackle the consequences of adverse childhood experiences.
The Charitable Foundation are funding registered charities for their work around two themes: a place to call home, and financial wellbeing.
