The Allen Lane Foundation
Created: 09/11/2026News/Events Category: Funding and Finance
This item will show under the following categories: Health and Social Care Children and Families
The Allen Lane Foundation aims to fund work within each of their funding programmes which:
- Will make a lasting difference to people's lives rather than simply alleviating the symptoms or current problems
- Is aimed at reducing isolation, stigma and discrimination
- Encourages or enables groups that experience marginalisation and/or discrimination to share in the life of the whole community
The intention is to fund work which is proactively working towards building better social cohesion; and priority is on funding charities and groups that are community-led – run by the community for the community.
They have seven funding programmes for the following groups:
- Asylum seekers and refugees
- People affected by violence or abuse
- Offenders and ex-offenders
- Gypsy, Roma and traveller communities
- Older people
- People with mental health issues
- Young people
Funding available
The total amount we can offer is upto £15,000. This can be over three years, two years, or a single grant.
They aim to help organisations to become sustainable, supporting running and core costs to enable them to have flexibility, security and longevity. They can contribute to project costs or salaries.
