Grants for organisations

Advice and Advocacy Funding

Following a strategic review of advice and advocacy provision across our Area of Benefit, we established the Advice & Advocacy Fund. We will deliver the Fund through a small number of organisations that provide accessible advice and advocacy services across our Area of Benefit.

This approach enables us to ensure residents have access to a range of complementary services, including community-based advice, specialist debt advice, and clear referral pathways between organisations. It also enables us to take a strategic approach to our grantmaking, ensuring we continue to invest in advice and advocacy while maintaining an appropriate balance of funding across our other charitable objectives, including physical health and mental wellbeing.

The Fund is currently delivered through grants to:

• Citizens Advice Camden (CAC)
• Queen's Crescent Community Association (QCCA)
• South Hampstead and Kilburn Community Partnership (SHAK)
• West Hampstead Women's Centre (WHWC)

The Advice & Advocacy Fund is currently not open to new applications. We will keep our strategy under regular review to ensure it continues to meet the needs of residents within our Area of Benefit and supports the Trust's wider grantmaking priorities.
