Quaker Housing Trust Limited
About This Funder
Quaker Housing Trust Limited (QHT), established in 1967 by British Quakers, is a national charity dedicated to addressing housing insecurity and homelessness by funding secure, affordable rented homes as nurturing spaces rooted in Quaker testimonies of equality, social justice, simplicity, peace, and truth. Managed by a volunteer Council of practising Quakers using the reflective Quaker Business Method, QHT channels donations and legacies to support grassroots initiatives that bridge gaps in social housing, emphasizing homes over mere accommodation and leveraging grants alongside interest-free loans for systemic change.
QHT prioritizes capital projects creating or improving housing for vulnerable groups, including those experiencing homelessness, poverty, young people, refugees, asylum seekers, disabled individuals, the elderly, and disadvantaged rural or urban communities. It backs diverse organizations like housing associations, YMCAs, and small charities delivering supported accommodation, property acquisition, refurbishment, or pioneering models, with a focus on small entities (typically under £1 million annual income) unable to access mainstream finance.
Eligible applicants are UK-registered charities operating across England, Scotland, Wales, the Channel Islands, and Isle of Man. Typical grants range from £10,000 to £25,000 (up to £50,000 total via grants/loans), with Best Practice Grants up to £6,000; applications follow a two-stage process (online EOI then full proposal) tied to five annual ad hoc Council meetings—currently closed, next deadlines announced December 2025 on the website. Exclusions include operating costs, non-housing projects, and direct individual services. Distinctively Quaker-led with low bureaucracy, hands-on oversight via 'Trustee in Touch', and a holistic ethos prioritizing dignity and lasting impact for marginalized groups.
