This item will show under the following categories: Health and Social Care  

Barchester's Charitable Foundation helps older people and other adults with a disability across England, Scotland & Wales. Grants are to help people lead more fulfilled lives and reach their full potential.

Their focus is on connecting or re-connecting people with others in their local community. They support applications that combat loneliness and enable people to be active and engaged.

They can help groups with:

  • Activity projects
  • Equipment and materials for use by members
  • Member transport
  • Day trips, outings and group holidays in the UK

Who can apply?

The fund helps small community groups and small local charities. They do not have a formal definition for a small charity, but as a guideline, if your reserves are over £100,000 it is unlikely to be funded.

How to apply

Apply online via the Foundation website.

Closing date: Saturday 31 October 2026
