About us
We are a grant-making charity supporting community projects in the Craven area. This covers parts of North and West Yorkshire, Cumbria and Lancashire, which make up the northern part of the former West Riding of Yorkshire.
What we do
We provide local money for local needs. That means that donations from our supporters – both companies and individuals – are used to build an endowment fund. The interest from this is paid out in grants so their contributions continue to benefit the community for years to come. In 1999, we began administering grants for another local charity called the Beamsley Trust. This means that we can also give grants to make life better for individuals facing hardship.
