We do not support mainstream schools. However, we do consider applications from special schools or for projects which specifically benefit special needs pupils in mainstream schools. Please speak to the appropriate Regional Office for further details. This sometimes causes confusion. We are an independent charitable Foundation and receive our income because we own shares in Lloyds TSB Group.
Sponsorship is something that companies do in order to obtain commercial benefit.
Therefore, we do not sponsor events. We like to visit as many projects as possible and it is one of the most enjoyable aspects of our work. However, because we receive several thousand applications each year, it is simply not possible to visit all projects. Yes, if you are part of an organisation that works in more than one region then we can receive applications for your work in different regions. National organisations can have funding for their regional work and work nationally at the same time.
