Hammersmith United Grant

Welcome to Hammersmith United Charities. We are a local charity which for the last 400 years has been using gifts made by local people over the centuries to provide housing to older people and grants to relieve other forms of need.

Organisations working with people experiencing some kind of “need” in our Area of Benefit (AOB) are welcome to apply for a grant.

Who is eligible for a grant?

Your project can be one-off or ongoing, but we’re most interested in the difference you will make to local people. We are particularly keen to fund smaller, local organisations with a strong connection to their beneficiaries and a good knowledge of the local area.

You should be supporting one of our priority areas:

• Meeting basic needs (food, shelter, advice etc)
• Work with families and children (supporting parents, education, play, transition points, vulnerable children)
• Countering isolation (in any group and for any reason)
• Building confident individuals and communities

We award a total of £400,000 each year, with grants made in October, January and May.
