The Eventhall Family Charitable Trust is a UK-based grant-making charity established in 1990 by David Howard Eventhall and family members. Rooted in family philanthropy, it advances general charitable purposes, health and life-saving initiatives, poverty prevention and relief, and religious activities. This reflects a commitment to positive impact in both Jewish and non-Jewish communities. The Trust takes a distinctive low-profile approach, emphasising discretionary giving through trustee networks. It prefers to support small to medium-sized, resource-limited organisations, particularly those serving vulnerable groups such as children, young people, and the elderly.
What Eventhall Family Charitable Trust funds
The Trust funds a broad spectrum of causes including health and social care projects, poverty alleviation, intergenerational programmes, religious endeavours, and support for voluntary bodies. It supports project funding, core costs, and individual grants, all aimed at delivering local impact. Geographically, it prefers small to medium-sized, resource-limited entities in North West England, specifically Cheshire East, Cheshire West & Chester, and Lancashire. However, UK-wide support is also available for organisations aligned with Jewish and non-Jewish communities that the Trust prioritises.
Who can apply
Eligible applicants are UK-registered charities and community groups. The Trust particularly prioritises grassroots organisations and those serving vulnerable groups such as children, young people, and the elderly. It prefers small to medium-sized, resource-limited entities with a local focus in the North West of England, though connections to Jewish and non-Jewish communities are also valued. No strict income thresholds apply, but geographic and network ties are important.
How they like to fund
The Trust operates on a discretionary, invitation-only basis. It does not accept unsolicited applications, instead relying on internal trustee decisions to identify and support high-impact causes. All funding decisions are made through trustee networks, reflecting a family-directed approach without formal fundraising or publicity.
