The National Memorial Family Fund launches its new funding stream called the Crisis Family Fund on 1 March 2021 in partnership with the United Families & Friends Campaign (UFFC).


The Crisis Family Fund will be generally open for applications (subject to available resources) for urgent needs of affected families in-between the standard grant rounds programme which is only open periodically.


This will be a fast-track process for urgent requests only. Family Fund Assessment Partners will largely drive the application process, with quick decisions made by our team.


The Process:

The first stage of the current process (registration) and grant limits will still apply, but from that point forward there is a simple endorsement form that Assessment Partners will submit to the Memorial Family Fund - and that's it!
