The Merchant Taylors' Foundation

The Foundation’s vision is to improve lives:

• Across the country, primarily through educational grant-making

• In London, as a place-based funder.

Across the country, the Foundation makes educational grants that benefit a wide range of age groups and educational projects: from transformational bursaries and well-being initiatives in schools to community-based music-making and training programmes for ex-offenders (see more information on how the Foundation supports education).

The Foundation’s work as a place-based funder is exclusive to the London boroughs of Lewisham, Southwark, Tower Hamlets and Hackney. Of these, Lewisham and Southwark are key.
