grants to associations

Associations involved with the hospitality industry can apply to the Trust for funding for a particular project.

The Trustees welcome genuine, serious applications for funds. The Trustees are especially keen to help initiatives that avoid duplication with other projects and encourage organisations, where feasible, to work in partnership. The Trustees believe wholeheartedly in helping well thought-out, balanced projects that will, in the long term, make a real difference and impact to the industry.

The Trust's recent activities with associations have included:-

• Academy of Culinary Arts with their 'Adopt a School' scheme
• Crisis for the 'Skylight Community Cafe'
• Academy of Food & Wine Service for the Skill Build Seminars
• Hospitality Action - The Ark Foundation seminar programme
• The Princes Trust 'Get into Cooking' programme
• Master Innholders for the General Managers' Conference
