About Adint Charitable Trust

The Adint Charitable Trust is a long-standing grant-making charity established by private individuals to support health and welfare causes. Governed by a small board of trustees, the Trust emphasises prudent stewardship of its endowed funds. It operates with a low-profile, bureaucracy-free approach, aiming to make a difference for vulnerable groups without unnecessary red tape. The Trust's core mission centres on improving health and well-being, with a particular interest in charities working with children. It grants to registered charities across England and Wales, favouring organisations that have an established track record.

What Adint Charitable Trust funds

Adint supports a range of health and welfare charities, with a strong preference for those working with children. It funds project work, core costs, capital expenditures, and revenue needs, offering flexible support to help charities deliver their services. The Trust prioritises national bodies rather than local branches or grassroots groups, and its funding is available throughout England and Wales. Health-related causes such as hospitals, hospices, and medical research are typical, alongside broader welfare initiatives addressing poverty and disability. The Trust focuses on work that directly benefits children's health and well-being.

Who can apply

Only registered charities are eligible to apply. The Trust prefers national organisations that can demonstrate an established track record in health or welfare work, particularly with children. Very small entities or local branches of larger charities are less likely to be funded. There is no restriction on religious context, but applicants must be registered charities operating in England or Wales. The Trust values prudent stewardship and looks for organisations that can show effective use of funds.

What Adint Charitable Trust doesn't fund

The Adint Charitable Trust does not fund statutory bodies, political causes, or religious organisations. It generally avoids very small entities and local branches or grassroots groups, preferring nationally-focused charities with an established track record. Other exclusions may apply based on the trustees' discretion.

How they like to fund

The Trust offers a streamlined, flexible funding style, supporting projects, core costs, capital, and revenue needs. It prefers national charities and works on a rolling basis, accepting unsolicited applications directly. Adint's approach is deliberately low-bureaucracy, aiming to minimise paperwork for applicants. It funds one-off grants and may support a range of costs depending on the charity's needs.
