The Ironmongers’ Company has grants available of up to £10,000 to registered charities to support projects that provide opportunities for disadvantaged children and young people to fulfil their potential.
Projects must meet all of the following criteria:

Be for children and young people under the age of 25 who are disadvantaged
Include educational activities that develop learning, motivation and skills
Have clear aims and objectives to be met within a planned timescale
Be within the UK

Priority will be given to projects that are enabling primary age children to develop a strong foundation for the future, for example, support special educational needs, address behavioural problems or promote citizenship, parenting or life skills.

Preference will be also given to projects piloting new approaches where the outcomes will be disseminated to a wider audience. Schools can apply if they are a registered charity for children/young people with disabilities.

The next deadline for applications is Sunday 31st July 2016.
