How to Apply |
We have recently published some news about our plans for grant giving in 2026. Please do take a look.
Our next grant round will open in spring 2026. This round will be for both community groups and schools. We will update our website and send out a newsletter with full details as soon as possible.
Before applying, we recommend that you have read our guidance notes for organisations and our strategic plan. We are looking for partners where our vision and values align.
Outside of our grant-making cycle, if you haven’t worked with the Walcot Foundation before (or even if you have!), we would love to have a conversation about what's going on for you in Lambeth right now and how Walcot could help.
Please do reach out to us and book a call or a catch-up. We are committed to supporting our community and school partners in a range of new ways in the coming years, and we are excited to share more details and take feedback as soon as we can!
