The Charity funds projects in England, primarily in Yorkshire and the North of England, as well as Zimbabwe and Southern Africa. It rarely funds work in any other part of the world.

It looks for innovative work in the field of social reform, with a preference for ‘root-cause’ rather than palliative projects.

It favours causes that are outside the mainstream, and unlikely to be funded by other charities.

It will contribute to core costs.
