register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.ukAbout Possuk Limited
Possuk Limited is a discreet grantmaking charity established in 1972, governed by a small board of trustees including members of the Dzialowski family. It takes a values-led, traditional approach to philanthropy, emphasising continuity, stewardship, and flexibility. As a generalist funder with a low public profile, it channels resources exclusively to other registered charities and voluntary bodies. The trust supports a broad spectrum of general charitable aims across all sectors, causes, beneficiaries, and interventions, without thematic priorities or target groups. Grants are unrestricted in purpose, enabling recipient organisations to apply funds as needed, including for core costs. Distinctively, Possuk avoids public engagement, structured strategies, or applicant guidance, positioning itself as a behind-the-scenes supporter for established charities seeking flexible, opportunistic funding.

Possuk funds any lawful charitable purpose under English law, both in the UK and internationally. It supports a broad spectrum of general charitable aims across all sectors, causes, beneficiaries, and interventions, without thematic priorities or target groups. Grants are unrestricted in purpose, enabling recipient organisations to apply funds as needed, including for core costs. The trust does not have signature programmes or impact stories, reflecting its behind-the-scenes approach.
Who can apply
Eligible applicants are UK-registered charities or equivalent voluntary organisations, including community groups, both in the UK and internationally.
