Massicot West Limited

The trust supports organisations advancing orthodox Jewish religious life, health initiatives, and poverty alleviation. It funds project costs, core costs, and general purposes. Geographically, there is a strong emphasis on Greater London and England's orthodox Jewish communities, though the funder is not formally restricted to these areas. Themes include promoting orthodox Jewish faith, relieving sickness and preserving health, and addressing financial hardship. The funder is responsive to acute welfare needs, integrating spiritual, physical and economic wellbeing.

Eligible applicants are UK-registered charities and community groups. The funder favours small to medium-sized local charities, although no strict income thresholds apply. There is a preference for organisations serving orthodox Jewish communities, but the trust also supports projects that benefit the wider community. Individuals are not eligible for funding.

The trust does not fund individuals or organisations that fall outside its core focus areas of faith, health and poverty. It avoids mission drift and does not support activities unrelated to its charitable purposes.

The funder works by invitation only, with no unsolicited applications or public forms. Its trustees make decisions based on networks and introductions, offering flexible funding that can cover project costs, core costs or general purposes. This approach allows the trust to respond discreetly and directly to acute welfare needs.
