    The Volant Charitable Trust Small Grants Programme is prioritising the focus of its awards on charities and organisations that are particularly addressing poverty and deprivation, helping to support vulnerable groups who are most affected, with an emphasis on women, children and young people.

    Project areas of interest, in order of priority, include:

    1. Poverty and deprivation (with an emphasis on women, children and young people): This includes support for vulnerable families facing extreme poverty, food provision and promotion of healthy eating in areas of extreme deprivation and mental health projects for vulnerable groups living in poverty.
    2. Women: This includes support for isolated and lone mothers, community integration support for black and minority ethnic women and children and asylum seekers, support services for women prisoners and their families, support for victims of sexual abuse, rape, domestic violence, and those working in the sex industry, provision of antenatal and postnatal care for young mothers or those affected by postnatal depression.
    3. Children and young people: This includes counselling for vulnerable children, support services and outreach projects for those who are disadvantaged or deemed to be ‘at risk’ through neglect, emotional and physical abuse, alcohol, or drug misuse.
