About Chapman Charitable Trust

Chapman Charitable Trust is a UK grantmaker that supports charities working to improve physical and mental wellbeing, conserve the natural environment, and broaden access to the arts. It appears to favor small, practical grants for UK-registered organisations, with a particular interest in projects that have clear local impact in London, South East England, and North Wales. The trust is distinctive for its focused, values-driven giving across wellbeing, conservation, and arts accessibility rather than broad general operating support.

Giving Approach

Biannual application process with spring and autumn trustee rounds; grants are relatively small, typically in the low-thousands range, and appear to support UK-registered charities. Funding is likely competitive and program-specific rather than open-ended, with decisions tied to trustee meetings.

How to approach this funder

Apply through the trust’s biannual rounds and make sure your organisation is UK-registered and clearly aligned with one of the trust’s priority themes. Strong applications should show direct benefit to people or local environments, especially in the trust’s priority geographies, and be submitted before the March or September trustee meeting deadlines.
