The Honourable The Irish Society: Investing in people, places and communities

For over 400 years, The Honourable The Irish Society has worked alongside communities in the North West and North Coast. Today, that work continues through a clear, forward-looking mission: to support lasting, meaningful change where it matters most.

Our grants are one way we do this – helping organisations and communities to deliver projects that strengthen local life, support opportunity and contribute to a more connected and prosperous society.

Our grants are delivered through a small number of focused programmes, each aligned to our long-term priorities

  • Growing Together - early year provision

  • Living Rivers, Living Communities - Waterways and Stewardship

  • Living Heritage, Shared Futures - Culture, Heritage and Reconciliation

Who we support

We support organisations and groups working to improve life, particularly within the communities we serve in the North West and North Coast

  • Respond to real community need

  • Demonstrate clear purpose and potential impact

  • Bring people together or strengthen communities
