Apply for a Grant

The Roger & Douglas Turner Charitable Trust awards grants to registered charities only that can demonstrate specific charitable work and public benefit in Birmingham, the 4 boroughs of the Black Country (Walsall, Sandwell, Wolverhampton & Dudley), Worcestershire and Herefordshire.

We provide grants for the core costs of running a charity or a project/capital appeal. Most grants made are generally between £1,000 and £5,000. Larger grants may be considered for our regular beneficiaries and capital projects once a projects financial viability is clear. We do not commit to future or matched funding.
