How We Can Help
To be eligible for a grant individual applicants must be under the age of 25 and currently live in Leven and have done for at least 3 years.
Our aims are to promote the education of young people, including their social and physical education through
- helping with the cost of books and equipment while at school, college or university
- assisting with costs of tools or clothing for persons entering a trade or profession
- giving grants for educational visits
- supporting the study of sport, music or other arts
Each year the Trust gives grants to about 70 individuals. Since 1977 this has amounted to a total of well over £200,000 to the young people of Leven.
Grants are also available for organisations which work with the young residents of Leven.
The trust has given awards to many of the village organisations which involve young people – such as Leven Primary School, Totstops, the Youth Club, Pre-School and the Scouting Associations. Junior Sporting clubs such as Netball, Football and others have also benefitted over the years.
What we ask of you
We expect applicants to provide evidence such as invoices, receipts, place acceptance or book lists for College/University courses.
We also ask that recipients of grants should acknowledge receipt of the grant so that our records are kept up to date via our email address contact@wray-trust.org.uk
We also love receiving photos of how you have spent your grant!
These have been our aims from the 1970's to the present day. The Trust meets quarterly in January, April, July and October to consider requests.
