Application for funding to The Ebico Trust for Sustainable Development
We invite applications for funding from organisations who wish us to support projects that tackle fuel poverty in sustainable ways, whether by offering advice, guidance or education, or by making practical and sustainable improvements to the material conditions of properties occupied by those in, or likely to be in, fuel poverty. The Trustees also wish to support those undertaking research into fuel poverty, its incidence and the various methods by which it may be tackled.

In order to enable the Ebico Trust to continue funding projects, such as yours, to help people in fuel poverty, Ebico needs to continue to be commercially successful as an energy provider. As such, we ask all Trust funding recipients who intend to use community interventions, to help us promote the impact the funding – and your projects – has on the lives of individuals and organisations challenged by these issues. We hopethis will raise awareness of the issue, and drive interest in Ebico and the Ebico Trust amongst ethical consumers who want to help.
The Ebico Trust works with other charitable organisations with similar objectives. Please be aware that, from time to time, the Ebico Trust may share, with other trusts, those grant applications which the trustees believe may better match these other trusts’ selection criteria.
