Partners in Change

Partners in Change is available to organisations working in Scotland with an annual income of more than £2M. It will support work which aims to change how services and supports for people experiencing poverty and/or trauma are designed and delivered

  • Please note that the closing date for Expressions of Interest for Partners in Change has now passed.

Through the fund, we are interested in providing funding and working alongside the organisations to better understand the drivers of, and barriers to, change around services and supports for people experiencing poverty and/or trauma.   

A small cohort of organisations (we anticipate in the region of 10) will be supported through an initial round of funding, which will offer a maximum of £150,000 per year for three years. The fund is open to registered charities, Community Interest Companies, Housing Associations and Credit Unions.

* The Robertson Trust supports change work across our funds and organisations with a turnover of less than £2 million are able to apply through these other options.
