The Kristina Martin Charitable Trust

The Trust was established by Thomas and Jacqueline Martin following the death in 1965 of their only and much loved daughter, Kristina Martin.  The charity's grant making policy encompasses the full breadth of charitable purposes for the benefit of the general public and mankind.  

The Charity Commission publishes up to date information about the Trust.

In order to minimise administrative costs, the trustees regret that they are not able to reply to all printed or electronic correspondence or return material supplied in support of unsolicited applications.  

November -December 2024 Grant funding update

All successful grant applicants have now been informed.  The Trustees are sorry that we were unable to support all applications received as demand was significantly greater than anticipated.  We received over 400 applications worth a total of £6.25m compared with the £240,000 we had available for distribution in this grant round.  

Applications for the 2025 grant round are expected to open in November 2025.  Specific grant invitations and eligibility criteria have not yet been established, however, you can see those invited and conditions for the 2024 grant round on the appropriate website page.
