The Ramar Charitable Settlement is a grant-making charitable trust focused on relieving suffering and poverty while advancing education. Guided by values of compassion, equity and responsible stewardship, it prioritises pragmatic humanitarianism, directing resources to organisations that deliver tangible relief and opportunity. The Settlement favours sustainable change through direct interventions that address root causes of need. It operates as a flexible, values-led family trust with a lean governance structure, emphasising transparent, policy-driven decisions. The Settlement bridges UK communities in hardship with select overseas aligned causes, valuing evidence-based, person-centred approaches that deliver practical relief, educational transformation, and holistic empowerment without duplication.
What Ramar Charitable Settlement funds
The Settlement supports projects for children and young people facing poverty and educational exclusion, elderly people experiencing isolation and hardship, people with disabilities including learning disabilities, and individuals from ethnic minority backgrounds confronting discrimination or socioeconomic barriers. Funded activities include poverty relief through basic welfare interventions and food insecurity programmes, health advancement through lifesaving initiatives and support for complex health needs, educational opportunities including training, after-school programmes and skills development for disadvantaged young people, and direct services such as day services, counselling, and therapeutic activities. Core costs for grassroots charities delivering outreach and peer support groups are also considered, as are community-led interventions promoting employment training, mentoring and family support. The Settlement operates throughout England and Wales.
Who can apply
Only registered charities may apply; the Settlement does not make grants to individuals. It prioritises organisations serving society's most vulnerable groups, including children in poverty, isolated elderly people, disabled individuals, and ethnic minorities. The trust favours grassroots charities with strong track records in basic welfare and empowerment, and it welcomes unsolicited applications. Charities operating throughout England and Wales are eligible, and the Settlement values evidence-based, person-centred approaches in the organisations it supports.
What Ramar Charitable Settlement doesn't fund
The Settlement directs its funding exclusively to registered charities; grants are not made to individuals. Capital projects and large infrastructure builds are outside its remit, as the trust concentrates on supporting organisational efforts that deliver direct impact. Its flexible, values-led approach favours interventions that are evidence-based and person-centred, and it seeks to avoid duplication by focusing on practical relief and educational transformation.
