Henry Smiths Charity - Outings for young people Their funding is for holidays or outings that provide children with an experience they would not otherwise have the opportunity to access. Trips can be to countryside or city locations, but must be outside the children’s immediate locality. They are able to fund day-trips as well as longer residential trips, but are less likely to fund trips to high cost attractions (e.g theme parks). They will consider trips for children who live in deprived circumstances within an otherwise affluent area according to the National Indices of Deprivation, but the case for support must be clearly explained. Schools, youth groups, not for profit organisations and charities are all eligible to apply. If the application is for a whole class or larger group of children, priority will be given to the most deprived areas of the UK. They will, on occasion, fund the full cost for children within a group who would otherwise not be able to participate in a holiday. Grants of between £500 and £2,500 can be considered. However, they are only able to fund a maximum of two-thirds of the total cost of a trip as we expect some of the funding to be raised elsewhere. Please be aware that, if they make a grant to your organisation, they may not be able to award you the full amount you ask for. Your organisation may apply for funding year on year for a maximum of three years. However, they cannot guarantee that each application will be successful. Each application is considered on its own merits, but demand for grants is high and always exceeds the budget available.
