Bookings for our February/March 2025 grant round are now full. We will open again for expressions of interest (EOIs) in autumn 2025. Please check back closer to the time for the exact dates.
If you are interested in working with the Walcot Foundation please read our guidance notes for schools or guidance notes for organisations. Generally proposals that fit best with our strategic plan and priorities will be considered. Please note: - Grants of up to a maximum of £30,000 per year for three years are available. - Core funding is on offer to Lambeth focused organisations (not schools) that are a clear strategic fit with the Walcot Foundation. - Organisations/schools wishing to apply for continuation funding (after being offered a 1 year grant last year) should complete an EOI to progress their renewal request. - If planning work in a Lambeth school it is preferable if the school has been identified and an agreement in principal reached with them. - When an organisation or school has an existing grant in place no new funding will be offered for a second project. For reference:
- Last year the average success rate for an expression of interest successfully moving onto the written application stage was 41%. Our average grant approval rate for applicants that completed a full written application was 48%. - if you are selected to complete a full written grant application and this application is then unsuccessful, you will need to wait 12 months from when you initially applied (the date of your expression of interest) before you can apply again. - Our application form questions can be found here. - the Standard Grant Conditions made to successful grantees can be found on our website. Additional project/organisation-specific conditions may be added as necessary. - Grant decisions over £40,000 per year are approved by the Board. The Director has delegated approval power for grants £40,000 and under. - If you are unhappy with the service given by the Grants Team or the decision made, please refer to our Complaints Procedure.
