Cantiacorum Foundation

The Foundation supports a broad range of charitable activities across Kent and Medway. Priority areas include children and young people, elderly individuals, people with disabilities, and community initiatives. Funded activities encompass health and wellbeing projects, care enhancements, equipment purchases, music therapy, and aid for those facing disadvantage. Grants can cover project costs, core costs, and capital items. There are no thematic restrictions beyond charitable benefit, allowing the Foundation to respond to diverse local needs. The geographic remit is strictly the historic County of Kent and Medway, and the Foundation funds work that directly benefits residents of this area.

Both individuals and organisations can apply to the Foundation. Eligible organisations include registered charities and community groups operating within the historic County of Kent and Medway. The Foundation welcomes applications from both new and previous grantees. Priority beneficiary groups include children and young people, elderly individuals, people with disabilities, and the wider community. There are no income thresholds, and the Foundation does not impose religious restrictions on its grant-making.

The Foundation does not fund organisations or individuals outside the historic County of Kent and Medway. There are no thematic exclusions beyond the requirement that all grants must be for charitable purposes. The Foundation does not have a list of excluded activities; instead, it considers each application on its merits within its charitable remit.

The Foundation offers both one-off and ongoing grants, covering project costs, core costs, and capital items. It welcomes unsolicited applications from eligible organisations and individuals. The Foundation is flexible in its approach, aiming to support a wide range of charitable needs within its geographic area.
