The Hilton in the Community Foundation supports projects within the UK and Ireland that focus on Young People and Education, and Young People and Health. Maximum grant available is £30,000. Funding can be requested for up to two years.

The Foundation makes grants to a wide range of charities that meet one of its chosen areas of focus:

Education funding generally will be given for training/re-training, educational equipment, activity-based learning leading to accreditation, sports equipment and occasionally apportioned costs of project staff.
• Young People and Health – relieving suffering and supporting young people whilst they are undergoing treatment and care.

The Foundation has a particular strategic focus on:

• Disabled children and young people
