Aims/priorities: As of April 2023, the Trust focuses exclusively on young offenders and young people who are at risk of offending. There are two rounds per year:
- Spring - young people with criminal convictions.
- Autumn - young people who are at high risk of committing a first offence.
Who can apply? Registered charities, not-for-profit social enterprises and community interest companies that are working within the UK and have a UK office are eligible to apply.
To be eligible for round one, applicants must:
- Have previous experience of working with young people with criminal convictions.
- Have previous experience of using a Sport 4 Development approach.
- Have an income of less than £1.5 million over the past three years.
- Be a registered charity or an organisation set up with a clear social purpose and appropriate governing documents stating this.
Social enterprise and community interest companies must have a governing document which shows the name, aim/purpose, objects of the group, including a dissolution clause. This clause should show that the organisation is a not-for-profit group by confirming that any assets remaining after all debts are paid will be given to another voluntary group with similar aims. This document should also include details of the organisation's Trustees or management committee.
The Trust particularly welcomes applications from organisations working in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
Grant amount: Up to £80,000 over two years are available.
A maximum of £40,000 can be requested per year.
Application process: There is a two-stage application process.
- Stage one is to complete the online application form on the Triangle Trust website
- Stage two will involve a visit from the Trust's Director to the shortlisted applicants (usually between six and eight organisations).
Grants are usually awarded five months after the closing date.
Full details can be found on the Triangle Trust website.
