The Inchrye Trust

Inchrye Trust grants

The Inchrye Trust is a small Scottish grant-making charity that funds organisations and projects addressing social issues, particularly education, health and well-being, and inclusion. It mainly supports organisations based in Edinburgh and the Lothians, Herefordshire and Monmouthshire, with increasing emphasis outside Scotland. Grants generally range from £300 to £3,000, and trustees prefer a series of smaller annual grants over three to five years to small organisations; trustees meet twice a year.
