Grants to Individuals

Charitable Trusts are an important source of funds for organisation like Narcolepsy UK. Some Trusts will also consider making donations to individuals.

If you are interested in applying for a donation from a Trust, please download our guide to doing so, and our list of those Trusts that we believe to be open to applications from individuals.  A template for a letter of application is also attached to this page.

The key messages in our guide are:

  • Make sure that you meet a particular Trust’s eligibility criteria before you apply to it
  • Be clear about exactly what you are applying for, why you need the funding, and how it will benefit you
  • Apply well in advance of the time that you will need the funding

Our guide is regularly updated, so please check back for the latest version.
