Experiencing hunger and hardship goes so much further than skipping meals, it can reach every part of a person's life.

This shouldn’t be happening. The government must act.

Oakham United Charities offer small grants to students undertaking apprenticeships, vocational training or university courses to assist with the purchase of books and equipment.
Each year, the Charity awards grants from the Henry Forster Apprenticeship Fund to students living in Oakham and Barleythorpe, and from the Rutland Society of Industry fund to students living in the rest of Rutland.
If you are age 16 to 22, live in Rutland (UK) and are undertaking an apprenticeship, vocational training or university course, you could apply for a grant of up to £100 to help you buy books for your course or the things you need for your apprenticeship work placement.
When you have started your course or work placement and know what books and equipment you need, you can apply. For our online application form, scan the QR code on our poster or go to https://forms.office.com/r/c85UC569CG
Or you can email Oakham United Charities at [email protected] and ask us to email you a grant application form.

The deadline for applications is 31st October 2026.

Hi everyone
We are so pleased that once again *Make to Donate for Rutland* are going to knit some much needed blankets for us to distribute over the winter.
They need your help, do you any spare wool you can donate?
Drop it into the Foodbank and we’ll pass it to the lovely knitters, many thanks 🧶🧶🧶
