Funding to Promote the Benefits of World Trade (UK)

UK-registered charities and other not-for-profit organisations are invited to apply for funding to support projects that promote the benefits of world trade.

The Worshipful Company of World Traders offers this funding through its charitable trust, which seeks to support innovative educational initiatives aligned with its objectives.

The objectives of the Trust are:

  • To promote world trade in all its aspects
  • To relieve poverty affecting those engaged in, or impacted by, world trade, as well as their dependants
  • To further education and training that advance world trade

Grants typically range from £1,000 to £5,000, although smaller amounts may be awarded. For projects not directly related to world trade, a connection to the City of London or inner London is preferred.

Grant requests should not exceed 50% of the total project’s annual funding needs.

Applications are accepted on a rolling basis and will be considered at the next Trustee meeting following submission.
