If you, a member of your family or service users of your organisation are living with the long-term effects of serious personal injury, medical negligence or due to illness (born with or acquired), you may qualify for support from Fletchers Foundation, and we’d love to hear from you.
You or a member of your family are living with the long-term effects of serious personal injury, medical negligence, or illness.
You are a registered charity, school or local group working with individuals and families living with the long-term effects of serious personal injury, medical negligence, or illness.

Counselling for the individual who is suffering from mental health issues because of the serious injury, medical negligence, or illness.
Group projects or events by registered charities, schools or local groups supporting those affected by serious injury, medical negligence, or illness. The project or event must be able to prove long-term impact.
The individual is eligible for any compensation award, in the process of claiming or has already received one.
The individual is financially able to support themselves, or their families can financially support them.
The individual is eligible for getting what they are asking for from the NHS (unless the NHS service or product is deemed to be unsuitable for the individual’s requirements or is not available in a suitable timeframe).
The individual doesn’t have at least one referee for the application form. Ideally this will be someone from the individual’s health team such as GP or physiotherapist, a local council representative such as social worker or housing, or a local professional that is not family.
The registered charity, school or local group can financially support the event or project themselves.
The registered charity, school or local group has (successfully or unsuccessfully) applied in the last 12 months.
The grant is going to promote/involve any religious or political aspects.
The grant is going to be paid into an individual applicant’s bank account (without an invoice, receipt, or proof of purchase).
The grant will pay for the registered charity, school, or local group’s ‘business as usual’ activity or to replace lost income.
The grant given is used by a registered charity, school, or local group to give out grants to their service users.
Individuals can apply up to £10,000.
Local groups can apply up to £10,000.
Registered charities and schools will be decided on a case-by-case basis. The project or event must be in partnership, jointly branded and meet our eligibility criteria set out above.
We will only support an individual or a project / event from a registered charity, school, or local group once every 12 months.
Please note there isn’t a limit on how many times a registered charity, school, or local group can signpost their services users to the foundation in a 12-month period. We will only support that individual once in a 12-month period, but there is no limit in how many individuals come from that registered charity, school, or local group (within reason).
