Neumark Foundation funds registered charities and charitable organisations working with children and young people up to the age of 26 in North Wales.
Guidance last checked 22 July 2026· from the funder’s own website
Overview
The Neumark Foundation funds only projects taking place in and benefitting North Wales, and only work with children or young people up to the age of 26. It makes grants to registered charities, charitable organisations, and individuals with a charitable project, but does not accept funding requests from Community Interest Companies. Its Charity Commission entry records a wider area of operation, throughout England and Wales, so its own criteria are the tighter test to apply to your project. Its stated priorities are education, employability, wellbeing, isolation and social disadvantage, and it favours revenue proposals over capital requests. Neither the foundation nor the register gives a grant size, so there is no typical award to work from. It publishes its criteria on its own website and has run rounds with a closing date, so check what is currently open before you begin.
What they fund

Who and where
The register records that it operates throughout England and Wales and benefits the general public. Its own funding criteria say it funds only projects taking place in and benefitting North Wales, and only work with children and young people up to the age of 26.

Common questions
What does Neumark Foundation fund?
Its funding criteria name education, employability, wellbeing, isolation and social disadvantage as its priorities, and it says it favours revenue proposals over capital requests. Its Charity Commission entry records its purpose broadly as general charitable purposes.
Who can apply?
Its criteria name registered charities, charitable organisations, and individuals with a charitable project. The work must be with children or young people up to the age of 26, and the project must take place in and benefit North Wales. Note that its Charity Commission entry records a wider area of operation, throughout England and Wales, while the foundation's own criteria are limited to North Wales.
What will it not fund?
It says it does not accept funding requests from Community Interest Companies. It also says it favours revenue proposals over capital requests, so a capital bid is a weaker fit.
How much does it give?
The foundation does not publish a grant range in the material recorded here, and the Charity Commission register does not record a figure for its grants to organisations. There is no typical or median award figure available for this funder.
How do I apply?
It publishes its funding criteria on its own website and has run application rounds with a closing date, so check what is currently open before you begin. Check the funder's own website (theneumarkfoundation.com) and its Charity Commission entry (charity number 1168728) for current guidance, as processes can change.
