Depending upon incoming funds, 3H Fund has a grant programme to assist disabled people (whether physically or mentally disabled) their families and carers, on low income, to organise a modest holiday for themselves. Grants are given for the accommodation part of a holiday and the holiday must be taken in the UK.
The programme is open to applicants throughout the UK although some funding donated to 3H Fund has to be spent in specific regions. Applicants are asked to complete an application form and submit it with evidence of disability and low income. Full details are found in the guidance notes which accompany the form.
We liaise with social workers and other caring organisations to assist applicants and, when possible, to identify those needing assistance.
Most funding is for individuals and their families, however a few larger grants are awarded to groups organising holidays for their disabled members or carers.
The Grant Programme is now closed for 2010 holidays. We will re-open in November 2010 for the 2011 programme.
FOR THOSE WHO HAVE RECENTLY APPLIED WE WILL BE WRITING TO INFORM YOU OF THE OUTCOME OF YOUR APPLICATION BY THE END OF JUNE 2010.
Any changes to opening times, or funds available will be posted on this website. If you have received a grant for a holiday in 2010, you will not be able to apply again until November 2011 for the 2012 programme.
