Grant Funding

To enable us to continue our work with children and families, Springboard applies for substantial grant funding every year.

Springboard is very grateful for the generous funding we receive from Foundations, Trusts and Charities. We apply for grants towards our running costs and for specific projects of interest to the grant givers. These funds are crucial as we plan services for children and families, and grants offered over more than one year increase our organisation’s stability. The invaluable advice and support given by these funders is not only financial, and positively affects many aspects of our work.
