The Wise Music Foundation trustees meet on a quarterly basis, usually in the third month of each quarter, to consider all applications.  Please be aware of the following deadlines:

End of February – for applications reviewed in March

End of May – for applications reviewed in June

End of August – for applications reviewed in September

End of November – for applications reviewed in December

***Please note that all applications must now be submitted through the website to be considered for support.***

As a guideline, our average donation is £1,500, with donations typically ranging from £500 - £5,000. 

Additionally, we do not donate to the same charity more than once in a calendar year and generally support smaller charities with an annual turnover of up to £500,000. 

N.B. Due to the volume of applications we are unable to advise in all cases when an application has been unsuccessful. If you do not hear from us within three months of an application please assume that your application has not been successful on that occasion. The Trust does however encourage you to reapply for future donation requests.
