St James’s Place Foundation is the charitable arm of St James’ Place Wealth Management Group and funds hundreds of projects each year.
Its grant programmes work across five main themes:
- Children and young people experiencing physical, social or economic disadvantage
- Living well with cancer
- Mental health
- End of life care
- Financial wellbeing
The Foundation supports direct delivery costs, such as salaries and programme expenses, and offers multi-year funding through its central grants programme. Local Impact Grants are also available through an SJP introducer.
Applications are by invitation only through a St. James’s Place Partner, Adviser or employee with active, significant involvement in the charity. The central programme supports small and medium-sized UK registered charities with an annual income under £7 million. The 2026 central rounds have closed; check the current guidelines and 2027 timetable before applying.
