Grant funders that a small charity supporting older people in Barnes, Mortlake and East Sheen could realistically approach — the local ones first, then London-wide and national funders, tagged so you can jump to the part of the service you need money for.
Start with the local funders. They are listed first and shaded green. For a charity of FiSH's size they have far better odds than the national trusts, and these are the ones worth a conversation before anything else:
How the list is ordered. Local funders first, then everything else, each by closing date with the soonest at the top. Funds with no fixed closing date sit at the bottom of their block. Use the filters and tags to narrow down.
Where this comes from. The London and national entries are the whole GrantFinder fund database as at 28 July 2026, narrowed by hand to what an older people's charity could apply to. The local entries come from two sources: a GrantFinder search on SW13 and SW14 restricted to locally scoped funders, and Richmond CVS's local funders directory plus the council's own grants pages. Both were needed — GrantFinder does not hold records for The Barnes Fund, The Victoria Foundation or the Richmond upon Thames Voluntary Fund, and Richmond CVS's directory does not list the council's Full of Life Fund.
Always check the funder's own guidance before applying. The notes here are a reading aid, not advice, and deadlines move. Richmond CVS offers free one-to-one fundraising support to local organisations — richmondcvs.org.uk.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Aims to improve the economic, social and environmental wellbeing of RHP customers.Framed around RHP customers rather than the borough as a whole, so worth checking how many FiSH members are RHP tenants before writing anything. |

Worth contacting before the autumn round so FiSH is on their radar. |
