Acerca de Sir Jules Thorn Charitable Trust

Sir Jules Thorn Charitable Trust focuses on improving health and care for people living with serious long-term or life-limiting conditions, with a strong emphasis on translational biomedical research and practical service improvements. It backs early-career investigators through a flagship, highly competitive research award, and also funds equipment, facilities, and scale-up projects that help proven interventions reach more people in the NHS and charity sector. The trust’s smaller grants are aimed at UK charities providing hands-on emotional and practical support, especially in palliative care, disability, and mental health contexts.
