UK-registered charities, non-profits, or Community Interest Companies (CICs} who are seeking funding for UK projects that directly benefit UK residents and are focussed on healthcare delivery (rather than general well-being) may apply now for grants of between £10,000 and £100,000 to deliver projects in 2027.

The funding will support projects that address acute conditions such as per-hospital care, life-saving equipment/training/intervention, and suicide prevention services.

In addition, applications for funding in 2027 can be made for the following:

Rehabilitation or aftercare for physical trauma or surgery.
Promotion of wellbeing through the creation or enhancement of green spaces, including the creation or preservation of urban wildlife habitats and the environmental improvement of leftover space.
Oral and dental health outreach, in particular provision of dental services for homeless and other vulnerable people and in rural areas

To be eligible, projects must benefit individuals with limited access to essential healthcare, including:

Patients with rare or under-recognised conditions as defined by the Genetic Alliance UK
Children and elderly with mobility limitations or post-discharge needs
Underserved and rural communities

Priority is given to individuals affected by poverty, isolation, disability or serious health disadvantage (not defined by cultural or identity-based groupings).

Projects must start with 12 months of receipt of funding and they need to show 'lasting benefit or meaningful follow-on value'.

Applications will be accepted from now until 30 June 2027. For more information, please visit Home - Vinehill Trust
