What is it? Sylvia Waddilove left a portion of her estate to charitable purposes when she died in 2001 and, during her lifetime, she set out the way in which her funds should be used.
How much is on offer? Grants of between £1,000 and £10,000 are available for small charities with an annual turnover of under £500,000; however, trustees may use their discretion to increase or decrease the total funds awarded. Applicants must stipulate the amount they require, and funds may be spread over two or three years.
What will it fund? Priority is given to projects that relate to the foundation's preferred charitable purposes, and will benefit the community or groups of more than four people. This includes educational projects for children and adults, musical compositions and performances, medical research and assistance for the disabled.
