Henry Smith Charity is a major UK grantmaker focused on people facing economic or social exclusion, with a strong emphasis on life transitions where targeted support can prevent harm and build long-term stability. It tends to fund specialist, non-frontline organisations delivering practical, person-centred support to groups such as young people, LGBT+ communities, care-experienced people, disabled children, domestic abuse survivors, families in high-poverty areas, and Anglican clergy. A defining feature of its giving is its preference for clearly defined thematic programmes and targeted eligibility, often prioritizing marginalised communities and services that improve inclusion, advocacy, wellbeing, and safeguarding.
