Overview

The Gilchrist Educational Trust provides funding for educational projects that address academic gaps and broaden access to learning. Eligible organizations must be UK-registered charities or companies and focus on specific educational initiatives, not general funds. The Trust does not support social projects or proposals from schools, political groups, or those seeking excessive amounts. Projects can be overseas, provided the application originates from a UK entity. This ensures targeted assistance to enhance educational opportunities.

Applications from organisations for Gilchrist Educational Trust are considered by the Trustees if it seems likely that the project(s) for which funds are sought will fill up academic educational gaps or make more widely available a particular aspect of education or learning.
