In 2010 our main grant programme has been named the 'Henry Duncan Awards' in honour of The Rev'd Henry Duncan who funded the first Trustee Savings Bank - which ultimately led to the establishment of the Foundation - 200 years ago this year.
This programme was previously called the Standard Grant Scheme, so statistics and case studies from previous years refer to this name.
This year we will make the majority of our awards through our Henry Duncan Awards, funding a huge variety of organisations to carry out an even wider range of work. Many of the organisations we fund are small grassroots charities working in their own local communities. Registered charities with an annual income of less than £500,000 can apply to us for funding through this programme.
For more information about who can apply, have a look at our Criteria & Principles document. If you are interested in finding out more, please e-mail us or call us on 0131 444 4020.
