Who are the Gloucestershire Funders?

We are a group of nine funders committed to work together as flexibly, swiftly and helpfully as we can, for the benefit of Gloucestershire charities, people and groups.

We will explore ways of sharing due diligence information and aligning our reporting processes to try and reduce the administrative burden on charities, whilst still maintaining our own good governance (please bear with us while we work these things out).

We also feel that, in good conscience, we need to say that we think there is going to be much more demand than we have the funds to respond to, but we are committed to doing as much as we can, and still ensure our ability to go on funding into the future.

The Gloucestershire Funders, in alphabetical order, are:

• Active Gloucestershire
• Barnwood Trust
• Create Gloucestershire
• Ethical Giving
• Gloucestershire Disability Fund
• Gloucestershire Community Foundation
• National Benevolent Charity
• Police and Crime Commissioner’s Office
• Thirty Percy Foundation

We are also in close contact with the VCS Alliance, the Local Enterprise Partnership and the District and County Councils.

And, in contact with other charitable funders in Gloucestershire, including Ernest Cook Trust, National Lottery for Gloucestershire, Pied Piper Trust, St James’s Place Foundation, Summerfield Trust, The Henry Smith Charity County Grants and The Honourable Company of Gloucestershire.
