Focus Areas
For 60 years, The Sheldon Trust has provided financial assistance to registered charities that transform lives—funding community projects, supporting special needs groups, and creating opportunities for young people.
Community projects around the West Midlands
Community Projects – these are usually grants to community-based organisations, run by local volunteers and/or some paid staff. The focus is on addressing identified needs within the local community.
Special needs groups around the West Midlands
Special Needs Groups – these grants are focused on the special needs of groups or
individuals with age, health or learning issues which put them at a disadvantage within society.
Youth projects supporting 16-25 year olds around the UK
Youth Development – we support programmes which address the needs of 16-25 year olds, especially those not in education, employment or training (NEETs). While individuals will not be selected and supported directly, the Trustees will consider applications from programmes which encourage young people to expand their experiences and challenge their capacities.
