register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.ukAbout Claimworth Ltd
Claimworth Ltd is a grant-making charity established in 1992, dedicated to advancing the Orthodox Jewish Faith and relieving need within the community. Governed by its trustees, the Trust focuses exclusively on funding organisations—never individuals—that promote religious observance, education, and practical support across England and Wales. Its approach blends spiritual advancement with social welfare, sustaining a low-profile, mission-driven operation. The Trust prioritises projects in religious practice and education, as well as social care for children, youth, elderly, and disabled individuals within Orthodox Jewish communities. It supports a range of grant types, including project funding, core costs, and capacity building, for initiatives addressing hardship and fostering communal wellbeing. Claimworth stands out as a specialised, faith-restricted funder, eschewing generalist causes, individuals, or non-aligned activities. Its unwavering dual focus on Orthodox Jewish spiritual life and material relief makes it a distinctive, niche funder.
