The 1989 Willan Charitable Trust Fund supports registered charities, exempted and excepted organisations, whose activities benefit residents of Tyne & Wear, Northumberland, County Durham and Teesside.

Priority will be given to those which ease social deprivation and/or enrich the fabric of the local community and the quality of life of individuals within that community.

Grants are available to support core and project costs, and will generally range from £1000 to £10,000. Examples of work that the 1989 Willan Charitable Trust Fund considers include 'Art projects that help tackle deprivation or improve local quality of life.'
