BEST NEWS EVER!!!

We take great pleasure in announcing that we were successful in our grant application to the City Bridge Trust, for their Strategic Development Fund.

This grant is a huge game-changer for Kingston Charitable Foundation and the local people we support through our grants programme, here in our shared community in Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames.

Our amazing grant is for the duration of 3 years, and will fund 3 new part time team members to join our existing team of CEO, Hicky Kingsbury and Justine Belcher, our Community Events & Fundraising Manager.

We will be posting role recruitment adverts over the next 3 days, one for each of our new roles, watch this space for how to apply to join our team...

We thank the City Bridge Trust, for their belief in us, and what we can collectively achieve to take our foundation for Kingston to the next level. To have the opportunity to create new jobs and recruit for them at this time is wonderful.

Having only launched short 2 years ago, a time during which we have already awarded over 70 grants, that have benefitted over 20,000 local people, we are delighted to have the opportunity to grow our team, so we can do more.

We will be publishing our Impact Report 2022 in April, but in the interim if you would like to read about some of our work to date, please see here for our Impact Report 2021:
