TRUSTHOUSE CHARITABLE FOUNDATION

Trusthouse was formed in 1997, when the Council of Forte inherited shares in Granada. Grants are made from the total return on its investment portfolio. It is governed by a Board of Trustees. Trusthouse currently awards around 350 grants a year totalling circa £2 million. The average grant is circa £6,000 though they can range from £1,000 to £30,000. Trusthouse is administered on a day-to-day basis on behalf of the Trustees by the Henry Smith Charity. Each charity is entirely independent: applicants can apply to both charities at the same time.
