Grant Guidelines and Limitations


  • Education grants are mainly directed at supporting primary and secondary education, particularly in the London area.


  • Company initiated projects, including the Science for Society Courses, the Primary School Projects and the Medical Student Bursaries, encompass the whole of the UK.


  • Grants to assist with education for children of London clergy are considered for those clergy serving in certain City and inner city parishes.


  • Educational grants to individuals are made only where there is a direct link to the Goldsmiths' Company.


  • The following applications normally fall outside the Company's grant-making policy:

    • a. Appeals from outside London
      b. Capital grants towards new buildings/playgrounds etc.
      c. Institutions with large surplus funds
      d. Research funding
      e. Individual student applications

  • The Company's policy is to give moderate grants. The average over the last two years has been £2,500.


  • Applications from any school or organisation, whether successful or not, are not normally considered more frequently than once every three years.

Applying for a Grant

Applications for Medical Student bursaries should be addressed to BMA Charities who will forward selected cases to the Goldsmiths' Company.

Applicants for London Clergy educational grants should write to the Assistant Clerk requesting an appropriate application form.

Applicants for Goldsmiths' Grants for Teachers or Science for Society Courses should forward appropriate application forms to the Assistant Clerk.

The letter should be accompanied by:
  • The completed downloadable Application Form. The form may be retyped, but should follow the same format and length (three sides of A4). Legible handwritten applications are acceptable.


  • The Charity/Organisation's most recent Annual Report and Audited Accounts.
