Awards
We seek to be a leading grant maker and regularly work with independent evaluators to improve our work. We always aim to listen to what charities tell us they need from a funder when developing our grant making processes.
In an effort to promote good grant making we like to share with other funders what we do and also like to learn from the practices of others. Another way in which we promote good grant making is to apply for relevant awards. Over the years we have been very fortunate to have won or have been shortlisted for the following:
- The Business Charity Awards 2012 - shortlisted in the Corporate Foundation category
- Charities Evaluation Services Awards 2011 - highly commended in the Funder category
- The Business Charity Awards 2011 - shortlisted in the Corporate Foundation category
- Third Sector Excellence Awards 2010 - shortlisted in the category 'Innovation by Trusts and Foundations'
- Directory of Social Change Awards 2010 - shortlisted in the 'Great Giving Funders Award' category
- Charity Awards 2006 - winners of the Grant Making category
- Third Sector Excellence Awards 2006 - shortlisted in the Overall Strategy Programme for the New Generation Initiative
- International Visual Communication Award 2006 - an interactive version of an evaluation of our 2000-05 grant making programme (the New Generation Initiative) was recognised with this award
