Nes Foundation Ltd

NES Foundation Ltd, a UK-registered charitable company established on 15 November 2005, advances health, well-being, education, and financial literacy among youth, families, and communities to tackle social disadvantage and root causes of deprivation. With a holistic ethos of empowerment, dignity, and social justice, it blends direct programmes—like school supplies, tutoring, scholarships, nutrition initiatives, stress management, family support, and budgeting workshops—with grantmaking to aligned partners. Sustained by investment income, its trustee-led approach prioritises long-term systemic change, guided by experts in social care, education, and community development.

The foundation funds educational attainment (tutoring, scholarships), mental/physical health (fitness, preventive care), family strengthening (child safeguarding, challenge navigation), financial literacy (seminars for youth), and poverty alleviation (hunger relief, necessities). Beneficiaries include young people, vulnerable families, children, infants, and marginalised communities, supporting direct delivery, capacity-building, project costs, core funding, and organisational resilience for grassroots groups to established charities.

Eligible entities are UK-registered charities and community groups operating UK-wide, with no income thresholds, religious restrictions, or locality limits—funding responds to needs anywhere in the UK. It does not accept unsolicited applications; trustees proactively invite and select partners based on mission alignment and impact, with ad hoc trustee meetings year-round and no deadlines or public processes.

Distinctively, NES avoids single-issue focus, embracing multi-dimensional disadvantage; grants typically range £5,000–£50,000 (occasionally larger multi-year), excluding capital/emergency aid as standard, and emphasise evidence-based, tangible outcomes in education, health, and financial capability.
