John Watson's Trust

The John Watson's Trust awards grants to under 21-year-olds with either a physical or learning disability or who are in a situation of deprivation. The grants have to be for educational purposes and are awarded both to individuals and to groups and organisations working with eligible young people.  Grants are awarded primarily to individuals and groups in the Lothians but can also be awarded elsewhere in Scotland. The grants committee meets approximately six times a year and has an annual budget of approximately £150,000 to disburse in grants ranging from £30 to £2,000.
