Shottesbrooke and White Waltham Welfare Fund

This fund was established by the Charities Commission in 1912 to help those living in the "area of benefit' (the Civil Parishes of Shottesbrooke and White Waltham and the Ward of South Hurley).

How we can help

The Charity income may be used to help generally, or to help individual people living in the 'area of benefit', who are in conditions of need, hardship, or distress. It can do this by making grants of money or by providing or paying for items, services, or facilities.

Restrictions

The trustees cannot help pay for rates, taxes or other public funds. However, it may use its funds to add to help that is already being provided out of public funds. Each application for funding will be considered separately. Applications that are successful on one occasion may not be successful in future.

If you believe you would qualify for funding, please get in contact with the clerk by using the email panel on this page and you will be contacted by your local Trustee.

A letter of support will be required from either :-

  • A Social Worker

  • A Vicar/Priest

  • A Head Teacher

  • or another official body.
