The Cruach Trust, a small Scottish charity, invites organisations to apply for its grants programme. The Trust provides grants of up to £2,000 for projects related to the natural environment, community, and music.

Examples of grants offered by the Cruach Trust include:

• Supporting a horticultural apprenticeship arranged through the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh.

• Grants for gardens, wildlife and the natural environment.

• Grants for organisations working with children, young carers, the elderly, the vulnerable and the homeless.

• Grants for music, the arts and cultural charities.
