“Meeting Hardship with Compassion Since 1603“
The aim of the parochial charities is to relieve hardship and poverty in Hackney.
We do this by giving grants to individuals who live within the charities’ areas of benefit in Hackney; or grants to organisations who are based in Hackney, or whose projects will benefit people living within the charities’ areas of benefit.
We welcome applications from individuals or organisations. Please see the map to find out if you are within the areas of benefit of the three grant-making charities, Hackney Parochial Charities, South Hackney Parochial Charity and West Hackney Parochial Charity.
The Hackney Joint Estate Charity maintains and develops properties in order to raise funds for the three parochial charities.
