The Foyle Foundation was established in 2000 as an independent grant making trust to distribute grants to U.K. based charities (primarily arts and learning) and schools.  The Foundation’s long planned spend down and closure takes place in December 2025 by when it will have distributed over £180M in total, including a number of legacy projects with long-term benefit.

From 31 January we have stopped accepting new applications. The record number of applications submitted prior to the January deadline will be assessed as usual and will receive a decision over the next few months.
