Deadline: 13-Jun-25
The Ellie Trust in partnership with the Liverpool Charity and Voluntary Services and local voluntary sector services in Liverpool is inviting grant proposals to support the protection and physical and mental health of women and children who have suffered domestic violence.
Eligibility Criteria
- The Trust wants to try to support organisations to continue the already established projects that they have been running and will support their general running costs; including staff costs (when specifics are provided), counselling services both in-house and outreach, and to provide safe and secure environments and projects for women and children. They will also fund new projects when specifics are given as to their intended outcome, including how they will take place and who the project is targeted at, highlighting the specific need.
- They only fund activities that can evidence the outcomes for those most in need in Liverpool and across Merseyside. This evidence must be quantitative and qualitative, and projects must be open to allowing The Ellie Trust to make a short film either during/after or both, to highlight the impact of where their grant has been used.
- They will only fund projects that align with their priority areas. Unfortunately, it’s for this reason that some good projects won’t be considered.
Ineligibility Criteria
- This funding is not for:
- Start-up costs for new organisations
- Individuals
- Other grant making bodies
- Replacement funding (e.g. statutory funding coming to an end)
- Loans or business finance
- Sponsorship/marketing appeals/fundraising costs
- Overseas projects/travel
- Safety equipment for individual households
- CCTV installation
- The furthering of projects which have a history of poor impact.
