Sir Jules Thorn Charitable Trust - Innovation and Improvement in Health and Care Fund

Energy Redress Scheme - Main Fund and Small Project Fund

Aims/priorities: The priorities of the Main and Small Grants schemes are to:

  • Support energy consumers in vulnerable situations.
  • Deliver benefits to the types of consumers that were negatively impacted by the specific issues that triggered the redress payment.

Who can apply? Registered charities in England, Scotland and Wales that are registered with the Energy Redress Scheme and have passed the due diligence process can apply to the open funding rounds.

Audible - Future Stories Fund

Aims/priorities: This fund aims to help unlock the potential of underprivileged 16- to 25-year-olds from historically marginalised communities, more specifically young people whose exclusion has hurt their levels of literacy and aspiration.

Funding will enable partnership organisations to use the power of storytelling and language to empower marginalised young people and create an environment where they can experience how language can be used to express and present themselves, open doors and create opportunities.

Energy Redress Scheme - Carbon Emissions Reduction and Innovation Funds

Aims/priorities: The Carbon Emissions Reduction Fund (CERF) supports initiatives principally aimed at reducing the climate change impact associated with energy use, which relate to Ofgem’s regulated areas of energy generation, distribution, supply and use.

The funding is for projects that demonstrate measurable and lasting reductions in the carbon intensity of energy use and accelerate the transition to net zero. Projects must also have a realistic prospect of delivering broadly replicable benefits to existing and future energy consumers.
