About this fund

Corra’s Henry Duncan Grants 2024 is for women led organisations in Scotland that support women and girls within their local communities.

Henry Duncan Grants will provide unrestricted funding of £40,000 across five years (£8,000 per year) to charities and registered not for profit organisations with a yearly income of up to £250,000. Henry Duncan Grants will support Women Led organisations whose work has a focus on addressing the impacts of gender based violence of women and girls. Henry Duncan Grants will also support Women Led Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic organisations who are working on issues that impact women and/or girls in their communities.

We anticipate making grants up to a total of £865,000. Approximately 21-25 organisations in total are likely to receive funding. In recognition of historic inequity in funding, Corra will commit 50% of this fund budget to support organisations that are led by women from Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic communities.

Henry Duncan Grants will close for applications on 30th October 2024 at 12 noon.

If you would like to speak to a member of the team about your application, at any stage of the process, please email henryduncan@corra.scot or phone 0131 444 4020 then option 2 followed by option 1.
