In the charity's own words
We make grants to UK registered charities, mostly for work in Greater Manchester and Cheshire supporting people age 13 to 25. We prefer to support smaller charities (annual income less than £250k) and have a particular interest in sport, recreation, arts. Charities which are a strong match should send no more than two sides of A4 to our registered address.
