Radcliffe Trust

The Radcliffe Trust gives grants of generally £2,500 to £7,500 to UK-based charities, not-for-profit and exempt organisations for music and for heritage and crafts projects. Heritage and Crafts grants are generally £2,500 to £7,500. Music grants are generally £2,500 to £5,000. The funder's website lists the location as Oldham, Rochdale and Tameside, and also says eligible organisations are based in the UK. There are two application periods a year for both schemes: 1 November to 31 January (considered in July) and 1 May to 31 July (considered in December). The deadline shown is 31 July 2026. Late applications are not considered. The Trust receives more applications than it can support. Individuals cannot apply. It does not fund retrospective grants, general appeals, endowment funds, operating costs or capital projects. Music grants exclude competitions and projects mainly involving popular music. Applications go through online forms on the Radcliffe Trust website.
