Rix-Thompson-Rothenburg Foundation: Care, education, training, development and leisure activities of people with a learning disability

The Rix-Thompson-Rothenberg Foundation is dedicated to supporting projects connected with the care, education, training, development and leisure activities of people with a learning disability. Projects involve those involving the arts, enhancing social interaction, improving lifestyles and opportunities, and which encourage inclusive practice are particularly welcomed. The Foundation awards small grants (average around £5k) to a variety of organisations which aim to benefit people with a learning disability and their carers.

Grants are awarded to registered charities that work with or support people with a learning disability and their families.

The Foundation does not have a website. Applicants should contact the Foundation’s secretary by email to discuss their project: rtrfoundation@gmail.com If an application is then invited, an application form will be provided which should be completed and returned, together with a copy of the charity’s most recently audited accounts

The Foundation meets in June and December each year to review applications.
