Health and wellbeing

Question:
Health and wellbeing
Answer:

The CLA Charitable Trust

The CLA Charitable Trust funds charities and not-for-profit organisations in England and Wales to support projects that help disabled or disadvantaged people access the benefits of nature and the countryside.

Through their funding programme, the Trust awards grants of up to £5,000 to support projects that improve the physical and mental health and wellbeing of people who are disabled or disadvantaged by helping them to visit and participate in recreational and educational opportunities in the countryside.

Applications are particularly welcomed for projects for children and young people who are disadvantaged financially, physically, mentally, or from areas of deprivation. The funding will support projects, capital works and running costs.

Eligibility

Registered charities, CICs, and other not-for-profit organisations in England and Wales that have not received a grant from the CLA Charitable Trust in the previous three years.

This includes schools exclusively for children with additional needs.

Organisations with a turnover of less than £1.5million. Larger organisations may still apply but are less likely to be successful.

Funding amount

Grants of up to £5,000 are available. Occasionally, multi-year funding may be awarded at the discretion of the trustees.

Closing date

Applications can be submitted at any time.
