Each year the Roland Callingham Foundation, the charity that operates Bekonscot Model Village, distributes its surplus funds to local charities and good causes. This is in accordance with the wishes of our late founder Roland Callingham to provide services to the community within which the model village is located.
The Foundation supports charitable work in the following categories:
- Education
- Heritage
- Health and welfare
- Religion
- Environment
- Arts
Qualifying organisations are invited to submit an application, which will be assessed on the basis of need with a normal upper limit of £1000. Applications must be made using the standard TRCF application form and the deadline for submissions is 30th April. Successful applicants will be informed in July with payment being made in September. Successful applicants are required to complete an evaluation form detailing how the grant was spent and to provide evidence of impact.
