OUR NEXT ROUND OF FUNDING WILL BE IN THE SECOND HALF OF 2022.

PLEASE WATCH THIS WEBSITE FOR FURTHER UPDATES.

What we Support

As a family charitable organisation we are looking to support a limited number of causes in a meaningful way over one, two or three years. We prefer to fund specific objectives, but will consider core costs where the organisation meets the aims of our foundation.
​

Eligible Criteria

TFCF trustees will only support registered charities or not for profit enterprises in England or Wales with an annual turnover of less than £1m. Charities need to be able to demonstrate they make a difference to the life chances of young people under the age of 25. The trustees will give greater consideration to applications that support socially disadvantaged youth of teenage years. In practice we expect the majority of the organisations we support will have an annual income of less than £500,000.
