Applications are open for the Jean Sainsbury Animal Welfare Trust grant. The Trust invites applications for funding, which are then reviewed against specific criteria, as set by the Trustees in accordance with the objectives of the Trust.
The Trust expects all applicants to be charities registered with the Charity Commission unless their annual income is under £5,000. If applicants are considering a substantial donation or legacy to The Jean Sainsbury Animal Welfare Trust, they could recognize this in the future with an annual donation made in their name to a specific animal welfare charity of their choice.
