Trusts and foundations

The generous support received from charitable trusts and foundations is extremely important to the Encephalitis Society. It enables us to work towards our vision of a world where encephalitis is as rare as it can be and where people affected receive the support they need to rebuild their shattered lives. 

Our dedicated trust fundraising team actively applies to charitable trusts and welcomes grants of any size.

Funding can be donated to support our services as a whole or for a specific area of business such as our research programme or support and information services; depending on the interests and priorities of the trust.

Thank you to all the charitable trusts whose generosity and support has made our work for people affected by encephalitis possible.

If you are a representative of a charitable trust or foundation and would like to find out how you can support our work, please contact us or call on +44(0)1653 692583. 

We can also accept in donations  from charitable foundations based in the USA through our dedicated fund. More details are here USA donor information
