Grants are restricted to UK registered charities only. Current legislation does not permit the trustees to give direct grants to overseas organisations as they are unable to carry out the due diligence required of them.

Small grants may be awarded for gap year / short term projects which extend to at least one calendar year.

All projects for capital building and renovation works are specifically excluded from funding. The personal health and educational needs of individuals are not normally funded.

Whilst there are no minimum or maximum amounts given an average grant would be a small one off in the region of £1,000 - £3,000.

Or alternatively apply in writing to Souter Charitable Trust,
PO Box 7412, Perth, PH1 5YX or by e-mail to
application@soutercharitabletrust.org.uk

Re-application for a grant is permitted, but only after one calendar year has elapsed. The trustees generally meet once 
a month and all applications, whether successful or not, are acknowledged in due course.

All grants are made at the discretion of the Trustees and their decision is final.

Grant applications must be submitted by the close of business on the last Monday of each month to be considered at the trustees' meeting.
