Grants of up to £5,000 are available to registered charities to support projects that equip people (18 or older in order) from disadvantaged groups with the communication skills necessary to gain employment.
Priority will be given to projects that target people experiencing multiple deprivation or other groups facing major hurdles to employment, especially women, people with physical, mental, or learning disabilities, refugees and asylum seekers.
The funding is being made available through the Thomas Wall Trust and to be eligible, applicants must:

- Be a project or running costs for a charity that equips people (aged 18 and over) with the skills ready for employment
- Have an annual turnover of between £25,000 - £500,000
Beneficiaries must gain at least one accredited vocational qualification during delivery or within two months of project completion.
The deadline for stage 1 applications is the 5th May 2025. Applicants who are successful at this stage will be invited to submit a stage 2 application.
