Funding in Perth & Kinross

The Trust provides grants to Associations and Charities involved in work for the relief of poverty or suffering of any kind, for the preservation of wildlife and improvement of the environment. The Trust favours applications from the Dundee area.

The association supports organisations devoted to the care and welfare of children and young people in Scotland with a preference for those residing in the Edinburgh area. Grant giving covers a range of activities from music to sport, disability and care. Priority will be given to smaller charities whose small grants can make a difference and who may find it difficult to obtain funds elsewhere.

Priority is given to artists in the fine arts and small organisations and galleries who should submit well argued, imaginative proposals for making or producing new work or exhibitions.

To be eligible for an award, your organisation must be based in Scotland, or your organisation’s project must take place in Scotland. You must be a registered charity in Scotland and your application must align with Ryvoan Trust’s area of interest: To provide support in aid of children, young people, adults and families.
