Community Donations

Sanday Development Trust welcomes applications from clubs, groups and services that provide a benefit to the wider Sanday community. Our standard award is £250 and can be used towards running a group, club, youth activity, community need or social event but must be inclusive to all. 

We are unable to support applications that benefit a business, and/or contribute to operational costs as other specific funders exist for that purpose, such as Business Gateway. Unfortunately, we are unable to consider applications for retrospective funding. 

Decisions are taken by the full board of Trustees with support from the management team to ensure applications comply with our charitable objectives. We regret that we are unable to support some applications but we are always happy to try and signpost alternative funders that may be able to help if we can. 

You can find a copy of our policy and application forms here. Please get in contact if you have any questions.
