About our grantees
A great big shoutout to our grantees. We know you’re doing great work – we wouldn’t be funding you if not. And we thank you for choosing Thomas Deane Trust to be a funding partner. We’re privileged to be able to support you, and over the next couple or three years we’ll be proud to announce an expanding list of important activities in the fields of xx that will make a small but important difference to people’s lives.

Featured projects
​
Wakefield Hospice, We say:
A great project whose title – Feelings in Focus – says it all. We’ve already got some great feedback on the value of photography work, and we’re humbled by participants’ comments. Wakefield Hospice have great ideas for reports, so look out for details”
London Philharmonic Orchestra, We say:
Truth to tell, this project probably wouldn’t have attracted our attention – top-notch learning and participation from an old hand, withrelatively little trouble in attracting funders. Until we started looking more closely at the inclusivity aspects. And then we got seriously excited”
