Partnership Funding 2026
Our partnership funding supports charities closely aligned to our business, customers and community across three themes:
- Heritage and the Arts
- Climate and Environment
- Education and Skills
This year we won’t be inviting general applications for partnership funding. We will be continuing to support existing partners and reaching out to a select number of charities whose work closely aligns with our priorities to invite them to apply.
We understand the grant application process can be time consuming, and we’re committed to avoiding unnecessary demands on charities’ valuable time and resources. By concentrating our funding on existing partners and a small number of new applicants, we can offer multi-year support and enable longer-term impact.
Take a look at some of the charities we’re supporting with partnership funding:
National Trust
We’re supporting a three-year project to restore coastal streams in North Devon – boosting biodiversity, increasing flood resilience and improving water quality.
Daniel Spargo-Mabbs Foundation
We’ve continuing to support the Daniel Spargo-Mabbs Foundation to run the UK Drug Education Forum. It gathers over 600 drug education providers, practitioners and policy who are committed to high quality, evidence-based drug education for all young people.
Royal Irish Academy of Music
Our funding is supporting three-year scholarships for young people to receive free music tuition and instruments, broadening access to the arts.
Heal Rewilding
Our ongoing support is enabling Heal to establish a nature-consultancy for landowners – helping more people create cost-effective spaces for nature on their land.
