Aims/priorities: The aim of the foundation is to help raise the quality of life in England and Wales, particularly for the young, disadvantaged and older people.
The funding is for one-off capital projects (not running costs) such as new buildings, major refurbishments, transport and equipment. Rented premises are expected to have a lease of at least 10 years. Applications for transport should be for new, not used, vehicles. Applications for equipment should be for single, high cost (£5,000 and over), durable items.
