PH Holt Foundation

The PH Holt Foundation is an independent grant-maker supporting local communities, education, the arts, heritage and environment on Merseyside. Funding is available to registered charities which aim to make Merseyside a better place to live; there is a particular interest in smaller grass roots organisations that find it difficult to attract funds. The foundation has the following priority themes: Creating opportunities for people to contribute to their local community; Enabling people to overcome barriers and take control over their lives; Widening access to education for people of all ages; Increasing engagement in the arts for marginalised or excluded groups; Encouraging care of the natural and built environment. Grants are normally for one year and the majority are below £10,000.
