Hollick Family Foundation
About This Funder
The Hollick Family Foundation, an endowed charitable trust established in 1997 by Lord Clive Hollick in London, manages a £40 million endowment to distribute around £1 million annually in grants. Family-led by trustees including Lord Hollick and Lady Sue Woodford-Hollick, it catalyses systemic social change by addressing disadvantage and inequality through equity, dignity, and opportunity. Its active, relationship-driven approach prioritises early-stage, community-led organisations overlooked by mainstream funders, focusing on transformative impact for marginalised groups.
It supports projects in education and skills for disadvantaged youth, mental health (especially youth and women), women's rights and empowerment, children's welfare, housing and homelessness, human rights, and inclusive arts. Interventions emphasise prevention, innovation, root causes of exclusion, and creative participation, targeting beneficiaries like at-risk young people, women/girls facing adversity, homeless individuals, ethnic minorities, migrants, and those with mental health needs.
Eligible applicants include UK-registered charities and community groups of small to medium size, particularly early-stage or scaling entities, with no strict income limits but a preference for grassroots operations. Funding is restricted to activities in Kensington & Chelsea, Camden, East Sussex, and Kent (or national orgs working there). The phased online process starts with an eligibility quiz, followed by Expression of Interest (EoI), then full application; rolling submissions are reviewed quarterly (Jan, Apr, Jul, Oct meetings), with decisions in weeks and full process up to six months.
Grants are flexible—unrestricted core costs, project/revenue/capital, seed funding—typically ranging from a few thousand to tens of thousands of pounds, with occasional larger strategic awards. Distinctive for its personal family involvement, bespoke advice/networks, and dual portfolio of small grassroots grants and high-impact bets, it avoids non-local or non-aligned work, standing out as a strategic equity funder for social justice in specified locales.
