About This Funder

The Worshipful Company of Security Professionals Charitable Trust, established in 2001 as registered charity 1088658 by the City of London's modern livery company formed in 1999, advances the welfare, education, and recognition of the security profession while promoting public benefit through security enhancements. Rooted in values of kindness, commitment, integrity, and trust, it channels sector expertise to support current and former security professionals and their families in distress, foster education via awards, scholarships, and cadet programmes, and fund innovative public safety projects like suicide prevention tools (e.g., R;pple), trauma bags for London, and bravery awards such as the Sheriffs’ Award.

It prioritises security-related causes, including mental health support (e.g., PTSD Resolution), social mobility (Friendship Works, Build Up Foundation), dyslexia aid (Helen Arkell), emergency services (London Air Ambulance, City Harvest), and equipment for police cadets. Beneficiaries encompass individuals in hardship—especially during crises like COVID-19—and UK organisations advancing security welfare, education, or innovation.

Eligible applicants are UK-registered charities or academic institutions with direct security links, operating UK-wide (England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland; London focus but national remit); no strict income limits, favouring small/medium groups. Unsolicited organisational applications are not accepted—contact the Clerk by phone/email first for eligibility guidance. Individuals (security professionals/families) may apply directly via forms. Decisions occur quarterly at trustee meetings on a rolling basis, with no fixed deadlines; allow weeks to months.

Typical grants range £1,000–£10,000 for organisations (£250–£500 for individuals), covering welfare, projects, equipment, or scholarships. Exclusions: non-security/unrelated causes, overseas appeals without UK charity channels. Distinctive for its livery integration, proactive crisis response, and trustee-led governance by security leaders, ensuring targeted, low-risk impact.
