- What is it?
The Drinkaware Trust is an independent charity backed by the drinks industry that aims to reduce alcohol misuse. As well as campaigning itself, it also offers grants to other organisations looking to change drinking habits.
- Who can apply?
The trust considers grants from any group in the UK that is looking to fund alcohol-education projects. It is particularly keen to raise awareness among disadvantaged groups, such as those living in poverty, and has an emphasis on sharing best practice.
- What will it fund?
It funds mainly campaign and education work around alcohol misuse and has three tiers of funding. Firstly its Ideas Fund, which is for locally focused community projects to help develop a project idea or apply for a larger award. The second is its Drinkwise Fund for help with projects that are already developed or up and running and pays for resources such as publicity material. Lastly, its Big Impact Award funds larger projects that aim to reach a wider audience.
