The Current Grant
Round is : |
Open |
From time
to time Murray's Muscles is able to make grants
available for qualifying applicants. Conditions
do apply and in most cases we are not able to make
grants that fully cover the application request.
We are currently a small charity and as
such have limited funds, but we have set a tarriff
which is designed to benefit successful applicants
at the same time as helping as many as we can.
Our
grants are restricted to helping people with conditions
listed HERE.
We are very much aware that having to apply to more
than one charity is both complicated and time consuming
but we will do our best to help. Applications to
Murray's Muscles for funding is currently NOT dependent
upon household or personal income as we know that
disability increases household costs dramatically.
