The E F and M G Hall Charitable Trust, established in 1968, is a discreet, trustee-led grant-making foundation that operates as a generalist philanthropist. It funds UK-registered charities at the trustees' sole discretion, without strategic themes or impact metrics. The Trust prioritises flexibility and simplicity, awarding grants proactively rather than through a formal application process. Its low-profile, bureaucracy-free approach reflects a commitment to public benefit, with no published mission or values beyond annual reviews of Charity Commission guidance.

The Trust supports a wide range of causes, including health (such as cancer research, hospices, and hospitals), disability (including guide dogs for the blind and cystic fibrosis), and social welfare (emergency shelter, animal welfare, and cancer support). It funds both national and local organisations across the UK, with no restrictions on beneficiary groups, activities, or outcomes. Support can be for core costs, projects, or capital, reflecting the Trust's generalist and flexible approach.
Who can apply
The Trust considers only UK-registered charities of medium to large size, with a proven track record of delivering public benefit. There are no geographic, income, or religious restrictions, and the Trust supports charities serving any beneficiary group across the UK. However, the Trust does not accept unsolicited applications; grants are awarded proactively to charities it identifies.
