This programme will be open for applications between 1 September and 16 October 2022, offering small unrestricted grants for genetic disorder charities.

The programme has two impact goals:

• Organisations serving the genetic condition community become stronger, more resilient and sustainable improving their ability to meet need and provide appropriate support in the long term

• Every individual in the UK living with a genetic condition and their family is able to access the appropriate support at the time they need it so that they feel supported, valued and included.

There are two strands of funding. Core costs offers front line, genetic condition charities single year grants of up to £3,000.

Project funding will award single year project grants of up to £5,000 to a wide range of organisations working within the genetic condition community.

There is a simple one-stage application process for both strands but each has its own eligibility criteria, funding priorities, maximum grant size, application form and monitoring requirements.

Only one grant application per charity each year is accepted.  You cannot apply to both funding strands.
