Grant programmes

Providing financial support to families since 1869

Family Action grants have been providing a lifeline to those in need since we were founded in 1869.

Our grants programmes complement our mission to support people through change, challenge or crisis.

We know that giving a small grant when it’s needed the most can make a world of difference. This helps families to work through the bigger issues they’re facing such as fleeing abuse or keeping their children in school.

Our grants programmes focus on the two areas of Welfare and Education. We believe these to be key areas in which we can really make a difference to support individuals and families, both those facing immediate domestic needs and those seeking to improve their educational and employment prospects.
