Funding guidelines

All grant-giving is informed by ABCT’s commitment to combat abuse and violations of human rights, and to support the disadvantaged by fostering community action.

ABCT generally responds to applications on a one-off basis.

Eligibility

Grants are awarded to charities registered and working in the UK. We do not fund charities working overseas. Individuals are not eligible for support.

ABCT tends to support charities with annual income between £150k and £1.5m which do not have substantial investments or surpluses.

ABCT does not normally fund charities with large national or international links.

Type and size of grant

Grants range in size, with most grants awarded being in the range £5,000 to £7,500.

ABCT seeks to identify charities working on our priorities for larger grants, which could be awarded on a regular basis subject to annual reports and an agreed exit strategy.

ABCT is happy to provide funding for core costs.

ABCT very occasionally undertakes special initiatives that take forward work in our priority areas.
