Policies and Aims

Welcome to the The Norman Family Charitable Trust service information page.

Below is a brief guide as to the Trust’s Policy and Aims:

  • The Trust’s primary objective is to help registered charities working in Devon, Cornwall and Somerset.
  • Applications from National Charities will be considered if the appeal relates to a project which will be of help in the South Western Counties.
  • Help is not given to any organisation which uses live animals for experimental or research purposes.
  • Assistance is not available for the maintenance or repair of religious buildings.
  • The Norman Family Charitable Trust does not help individuals. However, The Trust has recently given grants over the last two years to the following 4 organisations to assist young people from the South West:
    • Duke Of Edinburgh’s Awards
    • BSES Expeditions
    • Voluntary Services Overseas
    • SportsAid South West

    Please contact these organisations directly, mentioning the Trust’s name, rather than applying to us.

  • It is not the Trust’s policy to fund projects outside of the United Kingdom.

For more information or to apply for a grant, please call us on 01395 446699 or fax us on 01395 446698.

We look forward to helping you.
