The Batty Charitable Trust (BCT) is a grant making Trust. Its income is derived from gifts made by the Estate of the late Christina Batty (otherwise known as Christina Foyle). The BCT will generally support smaller charities in the UK and especially those working at grass roots and local community level. They normally award one year grants of between £1,000 and £10,000 to charities which can demonstrate that such a grant will make a significant difference to their work.
Previous recipients of Batty Trust awards include The Tunnell Trust For Young Musicians in Edinburgh and the Isle of Skye Pipe Band Festival. There are no deadlines for submission and applications will be received throughout the year. For details on how to apply visit www.battycharitabletrust.org.uk or tel: 0207 405 0225.
