Masonic Charitable Foundation provides grants for programmes which support children and young people and later life inclusion.

The Children and Young People stream is intended to support disadvantaged young people to overcome the challenges they face through education, individual interventions and encouraging healthy behaviours. The Later Life stream is intended to reduce loneliness and isolation for older people through digital inclusion, provision of clubs and activities and befriending support.

Charities can only apply for one of the two programmes at a time.  Small, unrestricted grants of £1,000 to £15,000 are available to charities with an income below £500,000.  Large project grants of £10,000 to £60,000 are available to charities with an income exceeding £500,000.

Applications are accepted on a rolling basis.  Full details can be found here.
