Funding is available for registered charities supporting the needs of the most vulnerable people.
One-off grants of up to £5,000, or grants of up to £3,000 a year for 3 years, are available to support organisations both in the UK and internationally, that promote access to justice (particularly for people trying to get support to meet their basic personal needs), equality of opportunity, or a sustainable environment.
The funding, which is made available through the Matrix Causes Fund, can be used for core activities that support vulnerable persons such as prisoners, asylum seekers, people with mental health difficulties, people (particularly children) with disabilities, or women in refuges.
There are two funding cycles:
Cycle 1: Applications are accepted between 1 January 2025 and 31 March 2025
Cycle 2: Applications are accepted between 1 July 2025 and 30 September 2025
