Funding to Support Holiday Activites for Autistic Children and Young People in the UK

This trust provides grants of up to £15,000 to activity schemes for autistic children and young people, and their siblings which run in the school holidays. Grants are usually for part of the costs.

Deadline:

Amount:

The funding is for either:

  • Autistic-specific activity programmes that run in the school holidays in the UK (including sessions for siblings), or:
  • The costs to include autistic children and young people who require one-to-one or greater support to take part in other (non autistic specific) play and activity schemes.

Applications will be accepted from not-for-profit organisations that:

  • Have a safeguarding policy.
  • Used trained staff (not parents/guardians). For autistic children and young people who take part in other play and activity schemes (non-autistic specific schemes), staff must have specialist training to provide one-to-one support or greater.
  • Have a bank account with two people to authorise or check on payments.

Priority for funding will be given to autistic-specific schemes.

Applications open on 3rd February 2025 and close on 28th February 2025
