Funding:
Baily Thomas Charitable Fund
The Baily Thomas Charitable Fund is a registered charity which was established primarily to aid the research into learning disability and to aid the care and relief of those affected by learning disability by making grants to voluntary organisations working in this field.
It considers, under learning disability, the conditions generally referred to as severe learning difficulties, together with autism.
In this area, it considers projects concerning children or adults. Learning disability, thus defined, is its priority for funding.
It does not give grants for research into or care of those with mental illness or dyslexia.
Funding is available only to organisations within the UK.
Grants will not normally be awarded to individuals.Applications will only be considered from voluntary organisations which are registered charities or are associated with a registered charity.
Meetings of the Trustees are usually held in June and early December each year and applications should therefore be submitted no later than 1st October 2012 for consideration at the next relevant meeting. Late applications will not be considered.
