McCarthy Stone Foundation supports grassroots charities, community groups, and small CICs that help older people stay connected, valued, and engaged in their communities. Its giving is highly place-based and practical, with a strong emphasis on reducing loneliness, supporting people living with dementia, and funding activities like befriending, memory cafés, warm spaces, and intergenerational projects. The foundation also stands out for providing both project funding and some unrestricted/core-cost support, often to smaller organizations that are directly serving people aged 65+ across England, Wales, and Scotland.
Small grants of roughly £750 to £7,500, often through recurring seasonal or themed rounds. The foundation funds both restricted project costs and, in some cases, core costs/unrestricted support for grassroots organizations; some programs are open applications while others are invite-only or closed for certain rounds. It tends to prioritize small, local groups serving older adults directly.

Monitor the foundation’s seasonal grant rounds closely, as themes and eligibility can change by cycle (for example, befriending, group activities, winter warm spaces, or dementia support). Apply only if you are a registered charity, community group, or eligible CIC/constituted group working with people aged 65+ in England, Wales, or Scotland; some programs are invite-only or closed in certain years, and dementia/core-cost rounds may have firm deadlines.
