Police charity announces two new grants


The St George's Police Children trust has launched two new grants to support the mental health and wellbeing of the families of serving police officers.

Child Counselling Grant
Financial support is available to all beneficiaries and current donors who wish to access counselling to support a young person through a bereavement or difficult time. The support is capped at £1,000 per child and the cost of counselling will be reimbursed by the Trust on receipt of proof of payment. Find out more.

Ex-Gratia Wellbeing Grant
Further support is available to all current donors who wish to offer additional support to a young person at a difficult time. Each application for an ex-gratia grant, including those from school leavers, will receive consideration. Find out more.

Please note, officers must be current donors to the Trust to be eligible for these grants.

St George's Police Children Trust is a registered charity which aims to support police families by helping ease the financial pressures of bringing up children in the face of life-changing circumstances.

These circumstances could involve the loss of either parent (whether or not they are a serving or retired police officer) or the police officer parent being unable to earn an income due to illness or injury, sustained on or off duty.
