Stratford upon Avon Town Trust | Grants and Applications

The funds the Town Trust distributes can only be spent in line with the Trust’s objects, laid down by the Charity Commission. These objects are, within the town of Stratford:

to relieve need, hardship and distress
to relieve sickness, disability, old age and infirmity
to provide or support the provision of facilities for education, including the advancement of learning and knowledge
to provide or support facilities for recreation and other leisure-time occupation
to advance the Christian religion
to further any other charitable purposes

Working within these guidelines, the trustees decide which projects and activities will receive grants and what size those grants should be. Each application is considered carefully and the trustees seek to achieve the maximum benefit for the people of Stratford from the funds available.
