The Weavers Company

We wish to work with organisations that can demonstrate impact with ex-offenders, young offenders or young people at risk of offending, either within a local area or nationally.  It is up to you how you persuade us that impact is/will be delivered, but please note that general comments and statistics about the sector are not sufficient to demonstrate impact.

We prefer to fund smaller charities and those instigating bespoke projects.

Applicants must show they have investigated other sources of funding and made plans for future funding.

• Size of organisation
  Whilst the size of organisation is not relevant when making an application, it may be easier for smaller organisations to demonstrate impact.
• Funding levels
  1.  Our Small Grants Programme has a cap of £5,000.
  2.  Our Main Grants Programme is uncapped, but you are advised to research typical grant sizes previously made through our Charity Commission Annual Reports.
• Organisations we will fund
  UK registered charities and charitable incorporated organisations (CIOs).  In exceptional circumstances we may support Community Interest Companies (CICs)
• Application Deadlines
  Please try to submit applications in good time prior to the deadlines as this really helps the Company deal with the usual high number and allows us to administer these correctly.

Rolling deadlines - please check their website for more information.
