Can you help me set up my own business?

Our Job Broking services, if in your area, may be able to advise you about aspects of setting up a business, including possible sources of funding. Go to our Finding a job or personal development section. Otherwise, contact your local Business Link for help and advice on all aspects of running a business. This website has links to all the local Business Links around the UK.

Can Shaw Trust provide a grant or funding for my organisation with a particular need?

Shaw Trust is not a grant-making trust so is unable to help you in this respect. To find organisations which do give grants to organisations in need, contact your local Council for Voluntary Service. To find where your local CVS is, contact the National Association of Councils of Voluntary Service, or go to their website. Local CVSs exist to provide advice and support to local voluntary and community organisations, and can advise on funding.
