thought-out, balanced projects that will, in the long-term, make a real difference and impact on the hospitality industry.


Those wishing to apply for a grant should initially write to the Trust with an outline proposal. In the majority of cases applicants qualifying for consideration will be asked to complete an application form giving detailed information on the application/project and an outline budget. It is preferable that the person with the highest authority within an organisation should sign the application form prior to submission to the Trustees. In some cases applicants will be asked to provide supplementary evidence in the form of a letter or report from an unrelated party to help quantify, qualify or generally expand on the reasons given for the application. The letter/report should, whilst supporting and endorsing the project, also help explain the need for the Trust to support the application.

In order to fulfill its aims the Trust seeks to work closely with colleges of Further and Higher Education (FE & HE), hospitality associations, employers, charitable trusts and other interested stakeholders such as the industry’s Sector Skills Council People 1st.


In 2002 the Trustees developed a strategic plan for achieving the Trust’s main aim. They defined those activities that would meet this aim and would enable the Trust to continue to be a major influence in education, training and development for the hospitality industry. Strategic ranges were introduced encompassing the various areas of activity. Since its implementation the strategy has been reviewed every two years to ensure that the Trust’s grant giving activities continue to be sufficiently focused and relevant in matching the aims and objectives of the Trust with the current skills profile, developments and needs of the hospitality industry.
