Funding

The Kelly Family Charitable Trust was set up in 2004 as a grant-giving body. It provides grants to local and regional charities that are working to make a difference to the lives of local people across the UK. The funding is for charities whose activities involve all or most family members in initiatives that support and encourage the family to work as a cohesive unit in tackling problems that face one or more of its members.

Single year grants between £10,000 and £50,000 are available for core costs, salaries, running and project costs or multi-year grants for a maximum of 3 years, not to exceed £100,000 in total over this period, for core costs, salaries, running or project costs.
