The Hobson Charity was founded in 1985 and was established to achieve the following objectives:

• The relief of poverty, suffering and distress of those in need in the United Kingdom, including the provision of facilities for recreation and leisure in the interests of their social welfare
• The advancement of education amongst the inhabitants of the United Kingdom
• The furtherance of other charitable purposes beneficial to such communities of the United Kingdom as the charity may think fit
• To make grants to such associations, trusts, societies or corporations established for charitable purposes

The trustees will consider applications for grants which are in accordance with their objectives of the charity and

• are from a registered charitable organisation based in England and Wales;
• do not include salary, people or core running costs of any kind;
• are not repeat or multi-year requests.

There isn’t a set limit for the grant request. However, you must ask for a specific amount. There is no deadline for this funding. Feedback on applications is normally given within 30 days. At peak times, this could be longer. However, you can contact The Hobson Charity  for an update after this period.
