Many charities offer non-repayable grants to help individuals or families on low incomes who are in need.
To be eligible for support from a charitable trust, you have to meet its qualifying rules (eligibility criteria).
This may be based on where you live, your age, gender, current or past jobs, health condition and nationality.
Some funds may help based on the details of your partner, ex-partner or dependent children.
Our Grants Search helps you find funds that may be able to help you based on your background, circumstances and needs.
Do a search for yourself and a separate one for your partner, ex-partner or the person who needs help.
If you are looking for a grant for a child or young person, do a search based on their background and circumstances as well as those of their parents/guardians.
