The Chown Charitable Trust was created by Bill Chown with the aim of helping small and local charities

About us

The Chown Charitable Trust works with Charities across the UK and in its home, Oxford. We try to help as many local and small charities with annual funding to allow them to continue their amazing work. If you work for a registered charity you can now apply for funding with us online. Check back with us for updates on projects we are working on and charities we are helping out at the moment.

Get involved

We love everyone getting involved and helping us to raise even more money. We work very closely with the amazing new Wellness and Charity app Welba as well as Go Fund Me and Facebook donation. We only ask for donations when we are involved in projects which we feel would benefit from more funding than we can directly provide.

Apply for funding

If you are a registered Charity based in the UK, you can apply for funding from the William Chown Charitable Trust. We mostly select charities that are based close by to Oxford where we are based. But we do sometimes accept ones from further afield if we feel they are relevant to us or we can make a real difference.
