Our funding policy sets out what projects we can support. Please have a read before you apply for funding as things may have changed since you last applied.

Funding Policy

We work closely with Leeds Teaching Hospitals to consider applications and ensure funding is awarded to projects that will have the most impact on patient care and wellbeing, making best use of charitable donations.

If you are successful in your application for funding, we will work with you to capture a case study about the impact of funding to share with our donors and supporters. This is an important part of the process and helps us attract future donations and support.

For helpful tips about what we’d like you to include in your application form take a look at our Guidance:
