William Price Charitable Trust
About This Funder
The William Price Charitable Trust, a long-established educational grant-making charity (No. 307319) rooted in pre-1963 philanthropy by William Price and governed under a 1993 Charity Commission scheme, advances the education of young people under 25 residing in the old Parish of Fareham, Hampshire. Administered by the William Price Trust Company, it tackles financial and social barriers to broaden access, aspirations, and social mobility, embodying values of equity, inclusion, and tangible impact through place-based, needs-led support exclusively for local educational enrichment.
It funds a spectrum of educational activities benefiting Fareham youth, including school trips (local to international), specialist equipment like accessible playgrounds, arts/drama/sport participation, capital projects such as synthetic pitches and theatres, and individual hardship grants. Preference goes to disadvantaged youth or those with additional needs, enabling inclusive opportunities like disability-accessible play or cultural outings; grants go to schools, colleges, youth organisations, or individuals, with over £300,000 distributed annually.
Eligible applicants include academic institutions and individuals (preferably via schools) within the old Parish of Fareham—no income thresholds apply, but beneficiaries must reside locally and be under 25. Applications via email (clerkwpt1721@gmail.com) or post use forms with proof of need/address; major school/organisation grants (£1,000–£20,000+) due by 8 September, decided at November meetings; individual grants over £350 (up to £1,750) by 31 March 2025; under £350 rolling anytime.
Exclusively educational and hyper-local, it rejects non-educational uses, out-of-area/age support, or unrelated purposes, distinguishing itself through responsiveness to emerging needs, blend of small/urgent and larger targeted awards, and sustained commitment to mainstream and non-traditional experiences like sports facilities and global drama projects for Fareham's vulnerable youth.
