The Englefield Charitable Trust is a place-based funder that supports charities and community projects connected to the Englefield Estate, especially in Berkshire, North Hampshire, and a few linked London communities. Its grants tend to back practical, visible community benefit work in youth services, education, arts participation, social welfare, local facilities, conservation/heritage, and support for veterans. The grantee list suggests a strong preference for local organizations delivering direct services, events, and capital or program support that strengthens community life.
Typically makes grants through two application rounds per year, with bids due by February 1 and a second round later in the year; support appears to be mostly local, discretionary, and project-based rather than open-ended national funding. Grants seem geared toward community initiatives, program delivery, small capital needs, and occasional event or facility support.
