The Guide to New Trusts 2022/23

Finding new grant-makers is a time-consuming and intricate business. The Guide to New Trusts takes the legwork out of the process to help you beat a short path to new funders who might support your cause.

The grant-makers in this guide, all registered in 2021/22, were chosen for their wide geographical area of operation and the breadth of their giving criteria, making them relevant to a large number of charities. This new edition offers a diverse range of opportunities, with grant-making charities established by individuals, families and companies. The list includes an eclectic blend of founders and trustees including entrepreneurs, retailers, premier league footballers and a screenwriter.
