Recently Luca became the first Treloar’s student to use the new Ability Drive software.
For the first time in his life, Treloar’s student Luca drove his wheelchair by himself, incredibly all by using his eyes!

We are often asked whether we cover costs for core funding.
It isn’t within our constitution to rule them out or in, so it really depends on the project.
We have examples where we have funded core costs and where we have funded just project costs.

According to the 2021 Charity Digital Skills report, just over two thirds of charities (68%) are planning a hybrid model for their working arrangements.
According to the same report, only 7% are planning for everyone to return to their office or usual workplace.
Did you know that our grant team have debated and deliberated at regular panel meetings and we are proud to have donated over £125,000 to over 40 charities since the Foundation began.
