Charity Fillers

Aim is to pair UK Third Sector organisations and radio stations so that unused commercial airtime can be donated for use by charities. It's similar to the ‘Radio Fillers’ service provided by the UK Government’s Cabinet Office. Registered charities and UK based radio stations can sign up for a user account free of charge at charityfillers.co.uk. Once set up, charities will be able to upload to the website with accompanying copy clearance details, and radio stations will then be able to choose which audio they download and play on their station.

Charlotte Heber-Percy Charitable Trust

General grant-making trust. I've found (quite old) data that suggests awards of between £1,000 and £20,000 in England and Wales and, maybe, some preference for Gloucestershire. Previous grants have been made for Animal Welfare and the Local Environment, Medical, Cancer and Hospices, International Charities, Local Organisations, Education and Children, Arts and Museums. No website. I think applications may be made in writing at any time, with review on a quarterly basis.
