How our grants work
We receive funding for the grants we provide from other charitable trusts and foundations, so specific criteria apply each year. Each programme will have its own application form, criteria, guidelines and deadline.
The criteria for each programme are agreed by the Hospice UK Governance Committee and each respective funder, taking into account any restrictions the funders may include.
Who can apply?
Our member organisations and their staff can apply for grants to help them undertake specific capital projects, develop new or existing services for the people they care for and their families, and increase their expertise in the work they do.
Non-member organisations offering palliative care services are also eligible to apply for grants, depending on the criteria of the grant programme.

New Grants Management System
Hospice UK is implementing a new grants management system. The new grant system will be live on our website week commencing 4 December. You can still access each grant programme’s information and criteria, along with a PDF version of the application questions. You can use these to help you prepare your application.
These FAQs will help you apply for our grants.
