The Jane Tomlinson Appeal supports charities and community organisations that help children live healthier, happier lives and provide practical support for people affected by cancer. Its giving appears especially focused on local, practical projects in the North of England, the Midlands, Wales, and across England, with past grants supporting children’s services, bereavement support, and cancer-related research or care. The funder tends to back smaller, community-level initiatives rather than large national programs.
Historically runs a named grants round ('Big Charity Giveaway') with invited applications from charities and community organisations. Awards are relatively small, typically a few thousand pounds per grant, with multiple grants distributed in a round rather than ongoing open-ended funding.
Watch for announcements about the next grants round and apply when applications are invited; this does not appear to be an always-open application program. Strong proposals should clearly show direct benefit to children or people affected by cancer, fit the eligible geography, and demonstrate a practical, community-level impact.
