BATF charity funding application 2026
The BATF is proud to continue its commitment to supporting charitable causes accross the UK. In 2026 we will donate £50,000 to one or more charities that are making a meaningful difference to our communities.
The British Allied Trades Federation (BATF) is proud to reaffirm its long‑standing commitment to supporting charitable organisations that make a positive and lasting impact across the UK. As part of this commitment, in 2026 BATF will donate a total of £50,000 to one or more charities whose work is creating meaningful change within their communities.
This funding is intended to support organisations that are delivering clear, measurable outcomes and making a genuine difference to people’s lives. We are keen to support a wide range of charitable activity — from community‑based support and educational initiatives to wellbeing programmes, heritage preservation, creative projects, and other causes that contribute to stronger, more inclusive communities.
We recognise that charities play a vital role in addressing social challenges, supporting individuals and families, developing skills, and driving positive change at both local and national levels. Whether your organisation focuses on helping those most in need, empowering communities, fostering creativity, or preserving important cultural and social assets, we want to learn more about your work.
BATF is particularly interested in understanding the real impact your organisation delivers — the outcomes you achieve, the people you support, and the difference your charity makes every day. Through this funding, we aim to help charities continue, expand, or strengthen their work, ensuring that the benefits are felt where they are needed most.
