Holiday Activity Schemes for Autistic Children and Young People

This funding opportunity, provided by the Three Guineas Trust (UK charity number 1059652), supports holiday play and activity schemes for autistic children and young people, including their siblings, during school holidays in the UK. Grants are intended to cover part of the operational costs for autistic-specific activity programmes or additional costs for personalized support enabling participation in other schemes. Funding aims to promote autonomy, liberty, and human rights for autistic and neurodivergent individuals, and may also support social skills and family support projects. Residential activities, capital projects, pure research, projects using Applied Behavioural Analysis or other coercive methods, app/software development, and grants to individuals, schools, or organizations not operating in the UK are not eligible. The 2026 round will focus even more strongly on autistic-specific holiday schemes, running in spring 2026, with application information available mid-January 2026.
