About C B and H H Taylor 1984 Trust

The C B and H H Taylor Trust is a family-founded charitable trust with Quaker heritage. Its mission centres on advancing peacebuilding, social justice, poverty relief and sustainable development. The trust prefers to fund specific projects rather than core costs and gives priority to small charities that are locally run and led, reflecting a commitment to grassroots change. Trustees are guided by values of stewardship and ethical partnership, aiming to support practical solutions that improve quality of life within communities.

What C B and H H Taylor 1984 Trust funds

The trust supports registered charities through four main programmes. In Birmingham and the West Midlands, it funds projects benefiting children and youth, older people, disabled people, those experiencing homelessness, mental health support, education and skills, employment and criminal justice. It also supports UK-wide projects with a defined link to Quaker work, overseas environmental and community development initiatives, and humanitarian emergencies anywhere. Only project costs are funded, not core costs.

Who can apply

Only charities registered with the Charity Commission in the UK or UK-based organisations legally exempt from registration may apply. Individuals are not supported. Priority goes to small, locally run charities in the West Midlands; Quaker-linked projects; and overseas initiatives meeting the trust's criteria. Beneficiaries include children and youth, older people and communities facing poverty and disadvantage.
