About Organisation

The Triangle Trust 1949 Fund is a charitable funder supporting organisations that work with young people involved in, or at risk of entering, the criminal justice system. Its programmes focus on helping vulnerable young people overcome barriers, access support and build more stable futures. In 2026, the Trust has placed particular emphasis on young women and girls, recognising the importance of tailored, gender-informed services. Its grants support organisations delivering practical interventions that address vulnerability, social exclusion and the challenges associated with offending.

About the Grant

The Triangle Trust’s 2026 funding round focuses on young women aged 17–30 who are already in contact with the criminal justice system. It supports projects offering sustained assistance with housing, employment, family relationships and the transition from custody into the community. Organisations may request grants of up to £100,000 for projects lasting 18–36 months, subject to programme conditions. The fund prioritises long-term, coordinated support rather than isolated activities
