The National Memorial Family Fund is to add a new funding stream called the Crisis Family Fund in March 2021 in partnership with the United Families & Friends Campaign (UFFC).


Essentially this is a fund that will always be open for applications (subject to available resources) in-between the standard grant rounds programme which is intermittent.


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!



We'll be providing more information in February 2021.
