List of Charities for people in need
Trust Funds for individuals in need

Please be aware that below the 1st dozen or so entries below, these charity details
have not been checked in 2 - 3 years, so may have changed address, or their
application criteria, or may have been subsumed into another charity, or closed
down entirely.
Bankruptcy Fee charities - click this link for charities that specifically assist with Bankruptcy or
Debt Relief Order (DRO) fees.
The application forms for these trust funds, usually need to be supported by a letter from, or
administered by, an objective third party "responsible person" such as a teacher, social worker,
probation officer, hostel or prison staff member, worker for a registered charity, Citizens Advice
Bureau adviser, etc., i.e. someone whose judgment and word they can trust, as they are often the target
of the unscrupulous who only want to rip them off for as much as they can get.
To ensure that you have the best chance of getting a grant, there are 2 examples (good and bad) of
filled-in Anglian Water Assistance Fund (AWAF) application forms on the downloads page, which
you can get to by pressing the Downloads above.
I would advise you to download and study these first, before you attempt to fill-in any
applications, as these are from the administrator of the AWTF itself !!
When you fill-in application forms for ANY Trust Fund, the rules are pretty much the same for form
filling and what to attach to your application. You generally need an up-to-date full bank statement
which shows what welfare benefits you are receiving and what you have in savings (generally nothing in savings). If you are working, then you'll need to send copies of your last months pay-slips to
show how much you are earning. Additionally, they usually want you to attach 3 quotes for each item
you want i.e. if you want a fridge, cooker, and washing machine, then go to your local stores (Comet,
Dixons, Argos, whoever) and get the prices for a model that suits your situation, but don't go for
expensive models, as you'll just get no grant at all. The main pages on the AWTF are 8 + 9 and the
Income / Expenditure (I/E). You can attach a copy of the financial statement that you can download
from the Downloads mentioned above (filled-in of course).
Some will only accept an application from one of these third parties, and won't send the grant to you
directly, but will send it to the "responsible person" to administer on your behalf. Applications for such
grants must generally be made by someone who knows the applicant in a professional capacity such as
a social worker, health visitor or by a voluntary agency such as Citizens Advice or similar.
If you want to do an general education or training grant search, click here and
use the search engine that this link sends you to EGAS (Educational Grants
Advisory Service) at the Family Welfare Association below. This link will take you
to the EGAS main page at the FWA's website.
Additionally, there is the UnLtd Millennium Award that was set up by the Lottery
Millennium Commission, where they give out several million 's per year in
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/stuart.blackstock/funding/trust-funds-table.htm
1/21
16/11/2014
grants of up to 5,000 per person (or a goup of you) to fund a project that will
assist your community and from which you will learn something. It is at
http://www.unltd.org.uk - take a look at the Level 1 awards and do a search in the
Directory page to see what type of projects have been funded, and see if there
was a project on a subject that interests you that was funded. YOU DO NOT
NEED TO BE A REGISTERED CHARITY TO GET FUNDING FROM THIS
ORGANISATION.
Essentially, all you need to do is make a list of all the hardware, software,
services, etc that you will need to run your own project, and put the costs next to
each item. Then write a proposal (a single sheet of A4 will suffice) outlining what
group of people you want to help, what type of help you want to give them (i.e. I
want to help local teenages who are at risk of being drawn into crime and/or drugs by getting
them into producing music / art / whatever which will direct their creative talents thereby
facilitating a constructive and creative use of their spare time which could otherwise be
turned to crime and/or the use of drugs to escape the local druggery).This website was
funded by a similar trust fund.

Grant size is in the region of 500 on average, but depending on the circumstances, can be
a lot more, (i.e. several K).
These are one of the very best trusts to get funds from, mainly (but not only) for any
education or training needed, as they administer a lot of (40 or so) small trust funds from
which they draw small sums to make up what you need.
FWA's priority (but not only) areas for funding are currently:
Mental Health: Support to improve the quality of life and reduce isolation for families or
individuals (over the age of 18) with mental health problems. Please note supporting
evidence of the mental health problem will be required from a suitable medical
professional.
Domestic violence: Support for those leaving a violent relationship to help rebuild their
2/21
16/11/2014
lives.
Refugees and Asylum Seekers: Support available to promote the stability of families and
integration into life in the UK.
Older People: Support to promote independence, improve the quality of life and reduce
isolation for those aged 60 and over.
Young People (aged 19 to 25): Support for vulnerable young people to help to establish a
stable and independent life.
Lone Parents:
Support to assist lone parents in need with the cost of children's school uniforms
and school trips. (Please note that grants are also available, to a maximum of
200),
Support for lone parents with the additional cost of their own education, such as
books, equipment, travel and childcare - All applications for this purpose should be
made via the Educational Grants Advisory Service.
Holidays for Women living in Greater London: Support to provide recuperative
holidays for women who are resident in greater London. Download Women's Holiday
fund applcaition form.
Sickness/Disability: Support available for medical treatment (particularly special
treatment), services, facilities or equipment for those who are sick or physically disabled.

Many people who are subsisting on benefits have no savings or no one to help them when
something goes wrong, such as their washing machine breaking down or spending time in
hospital with a sick child. Likewise, when things go right and people have been able to turn their
3/21
16/11/2014
lives around, like getting a flat after being homeless or breaking an addiction, few have the
resources to buy a bed, a cooker or some clothes. The Vicar's Relief Fund helps to meet needs
like these by making small grants. The Fund helps those in the greatest of need, regardless of
who they are, where they live in the UK, their origins, legal status or belief.
The VRF makes grants to 'those who are in need or suffering hardship'. Hardship for one person
or family may not be the same for another, so they attempt to be flexible in their approach.
Although it is impossible to define a 'typical' grant, their aim is to help provide the recipient
with ordinary necessities many people take for granted. They respond to requests for items
such as beds and bedding, clothing, domestic appliances, furniture, equipment for babies
and toddlers, and arrears on rent, council tax or utility bills.
The grants they are able to make are not for luxuries, nor are they meant to simply make
people's lives easier (though that happens as a result). Grants are relatively small (on average
about 150). Just as important as providing help is how quickly help can be given. They
recognise that people in need are in need now : 7 out of 10 grants are sent within 3 days of
receiving the request. VRF make grants to more than half of the requests received that meet
their criteria.
They don't usually make grants to individuals applying on their own behalf. As a small charity
with limited resources, they rely on professionals like the ones listed below to assess their
client's needs and, where appropriate, make an application on behalf of their client.
social workers
support workers in housing associations, hostels, refuges, SureStarts and family centres
key workers in rehabilitation centres
CAB advisors
probation officers
CPNs, health visitors and other health professionals
clergy, prison and hospital chaplains
and staff in other voluntary organisations and caring agencies.
They don't normally make more than one grant per person or family in any twelve-month
period. Although the VRF is a small charity, it has a national reach, so they don't want to
concentrate limited resources in one area of the country or a single organisation. Please do not
send in more than one request at a time: it is best to make an application to the VRF when there
is a pressing need rather than for routine applications.
VRF is very heavily over-subscribed. Individuals cannot apply on their own
behalf, or request application forms for their support workers or advisors to fill
out for them. ONLY CASEWORKERS FROM AN ORGANISATION APPLYING ON
YOUR BEHALF CAN APPLY FOR APPLICATION FORM AND APPLY ON YOUR
BEHALF (such as a CAB or other advice organisation caseworker / adviser,
social worker, etc)

16/11/2014
discretion of the Trustees

300-500 on average, but can occasionally be a lot more, depending on needs.
For people on a low income, to buy basic household goods, clothing, items to make life easier in
the home, etc. this charity has a special deal with Comet and other warehouses, so they
won't send a cheque, but will instead have the "white goods" sent directly to the home of
the recipient, i.e. cooker, fridge/freezer, washing machine, sofa, beds, etc. You cannot
choose a specific model, as the ones supplied are basic models.
Applications should include the individuals:
full name, age and address of members of the household;
a breakdown of household income and expenditure, including any disability benefits and
any debts (you can use this Income/Expenditure calculator / financial statement however, I would advise you to download and first watch the video tutorial of filling in a
financial statement which are on the downloads page )
information on family circumstances;
detail of the need being requested, for example, cooker, washing machine, fridge/freezer,
etc.;
requests for holiday grants should provide an outline of the proposed holiday, including
date, type, location, duration and a breakdown of costs;
details of other funding sources approached and other requests.
Take a look at their website which specifies what they will and will not fund. The cheque sent,
is never sent to the recipient directly, but to some other "responsible" person to administer its
spending.The Glasspool Trust do not accept applications directly from individual members of
the public. Only organisations that meet their criteria are eligible to apply (see

Energy Trust - are all national Trust Funds which helps only current domestic customers by
giving grants to reduce or clear arrears of gas or electricity debts - or help with other essential
household bills or costs ( called "Further Assistance Payments" - however it needs to be a very
good case). Any domestic customer can apply to these Energy Trust Funds which are aimed
primarily at clearing energy debt but in exceptional circumstances can help with other bills and
costs. The Trusts can help people by giving grants to :-1. Reduce or clear some forms of debt, bankruptcy fees;
2. Help with other essential domestic bills and costs, e.g. bed, cooker, washing machine,
fridge, etc.(you can apply for help with these even if you don't apply for help with your
Gas / Electricity charges, so long as you are an EDF customer )

have already bought. In addition the Trusts cannot help you with the following :-1.

consent to be considered for assistance from any of the trust funds administered by Charis.
See also the example copies of filled-in good and filled-in bad application forms, which should
guide you through making an application with a better chance of success. These examples are
also good for giving you an idea of how to fill in application forms for other Trust Funds /
Charities, as these forms are exactly the same forms (except for the front page titles, more or
less) as used by the British Gas Energy Trust, the EDF Energy Trust, the Npower Energy Trrust.

Help they offer - the Scope of their Assistance

The Fund's principal objective is to alleviate financial distress, and there are no hard and fast
rules defining the amount of assistance that may be offered. The requirements of each case
are considered in the light of individual circumstances. People may qualify for assistance
whether or not they are eligible for State Benefits. However, most of our beneficiaries have
limited means, although we would expect that all statutory entitlements are being received by
individuals prior to seeking additional support from the Fund. Generally, assistance will be in
the form of a non-repayable one-off grant. Regular help may be available in the form of a
monthly grant but such grants are dependent upon net income levels.
Eligibility
In order to gain assistance from the fund you must meet the applicable below criteria :-If you are employed by Royal Mail, Post Office Ltd, Parcelforce Worldwide or General
Logistics you will need to have completed 6 months service, either on a part time or full
time basis, before being eligible for help from the Fund. We are not able to help casual
workers.
If you are retired you need to be in receipt of an occupational pension, either in your own
right or as a widow/widower.
If you left the organisation before retirement age you must be a deferred pensioner to be
eligible for help. That is you remain a member of the pension plan, and will receive a
pension on reaching retirement age.
They are also able to help direct dependants of the above.

Advice and Support

We work very closely with Royal Mail Groupsadviceline, HELP, who can provide advice in a
number of areas, not just financial advice. For example they are able to provide advice on
benefit entitlement.
HELP is a completely independent andconfidential service and is available to serving and
retired staff. They act as our caseworkers and are the contact point for both staff and pensioners.
If you are in need of financial support and think you might be eligible for assistance from
the Fund then please contact HELP on 0800 6 888 777.
If you know of a work colleague or Royal Mail Group pensioner who you think may be in need
of financial support, do let them know about the Fund and how we can help those in times of
need.

criteria. In general the trusts support the needs of single, older women. Applicants should be in
receipt of a state pension or be an adult with a disability and receiving relevant benefits. One of

The Thomas Wall Trust welcomes applications from UK nationals only, particularly those who,
through adverse or unexpected circumstances, have financial difficulties but who wish to pursue
vocational courses or courses concerned with social welfare which will subsequently lead to
paid employment., but they prefer this to be a supplement to other sponsorship (i.e. someone
else on the bandwagon first with an offer of other money to pay for part of your course, or
whatever you're after).
The Trustees require the submission of an online application form completed in full. They no
longer accept postal applications and the application form is not available to download. The
Trust opens at the beginning of the year to consider courses beginning in September of that year.

Royal London Society is one of Britains oldest charities seeking to assist in the rehabilitation of
offenders and the reintegration into the community of those serving custodial sentences or under
statutory supervision. The Society seeks to help families and dependents of those who have
committed offences and those who might possibly commit offences because of their particular
circumstances.Furthermore, the Society seeks to reduce re-offending by providing training and
education so that ex-offenders may have a realistic opportunity of obtaining sustainable
employment following completion of their sentence. Funding is also provided in such a way as
to restore and enhance dignity, self-belief and confidence aiming to enhance the prospects for
ex-offenders to contribute to the welfare of the community rather than be a burden on it. The
Society funds a number of practical projects with this objective.
Who does Royal London Society support? Grants for long term and life sentence prisoners
towards cell hobbies or similar activities that it is confirmed are important in sustaining them
through their sentence
What does Royal London Society Support? Offenders /ex-offenders can apply for a grant to
be used for training that will significantly increase their employment opportunities
What does Royal London Society NOT support? Computers/laptops, fees for Open
University Courses, text books, travel, personal clothing or furniture of any kind. The Society
will not provide grants for the repayment of debts including student loans.
How to apply: Applicants are invited to write to the Co-ordinator of the Royal London Society
in the Grant Application Forms
In a request for funding, full details must be provided, together with a breakdown of the costs
from the Training Provider. Included in the application must be a letter of confirmation from the

relevant course. It should be noted that all completed application forms be accompanied by
