Cambridgeshire Quakers – The Ann Docwra Fund
How to Apply
The fund is administered by the trustees of the Cambridgeshire Area Quaker Meeting charity. The Cambridgeshire Area Quaker Meeting is the collective of the local Quaker meetings in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough, you can find more details here.
We recommend that, if you are uncertain about any aspect of your application, you contact your local Quaker Meeting, Locations | Quakers in Cambridgeshire (cambridgeshire-quakers.org.uk) or the Ann Docwra group,
an*************@ca********************.uk
advising where you live in Cambridgeshire, and we can discuss the application with you before submission.
We have two classes of grant to disburse:
- For Large grants for Charities and non-profit Organisations of up to £20k, please apply here. Large grants are considered twice yearly at trustees’ meetings. The next deadline for applications is Monday 20th January 2025.
- For Small grants for Individuals apply here. Our maximum single grant is £1,000. We do not accept unsupported applications from individuals. Individual applications need to come via Quaker Pastoral or Role holder Friends, or via organisations such as welfare agencies, supporting charities etc.
For Quaker applications up to £500 the Ann Docwra Committee will generally follow the recommendation of the relevant Pastoral or Role holder Friend(s).
For applications over £500, and for all non-Quaker applications, the Ann Docwra Committee will decide in consultation with the supporting individual or body (i.e. the relevant Pastoral/Role holder Friend, welfare agency, charity etc).
