FORD BRITAIN TRUST

Working with our local communities to sow the seeds of change.

We are committed to supporting the communities that we work and live in. That is why we created the Ford Britain Trust. Since April 1975 we have been able to help fund the education and advancement of our neighbours.

We pay special attention to projects focusing on education, environment, children, the disabled, youth activities and projects that provide clear benefits to the local communities close to our UK locations. The Ford Britain Trust particularly encourages applications supported by Ford employees, but is open to all, provided that the qualifying organisations meet our selection criteria.

There are two types of grants to apply for:

Small grants for amounts up to £250

We will be accepting applications for small grants from 1st August 2022 to 31st October 2022 for review in November 2022.

Large grants for amounts over £250 and up to a maximum of £3000

We will be accepting applications for large grants from 1st September 2022 to 31st January 2023 for consideration at the Board of Trustees Meeting in March 2023.

Please note applications received after these dates will not be accepted and will, instead, be put forward for inclusion in the next application cycles.

 Grant applications will be considered for projects being undertaken/expenditure being made in all UK postcodes however locations near Ford Motor Company Limited / FCE Bank plc UK operations are given a higher weighting:

  • Essex (including East London)

  • Bridgend (South Wales)

  • Southampton
