Margaret's Fund (UK registered charity, number 210615) is here to give financial assistance to women in the UK who are in need, and who are in ill health.

We help with assistance such as disability grants, funding for mobility scooters, wheelchair grants, money towards a stair-lift, finance for medical equipment and so on.

In 2011 Margaret's made grants for items such as a stairlift (£500) a mobility scooter (£400) and a recliner chair (£500) all for women in different parts of the UK and all through different Caring Professionals' Organisations. Other financial assistance includes grants for a cooker (£300) a Respite Break (£200) and a computer (£400) again, all for women in need.

Please note we only give grants through Caring Professionals' Organisations. Unless an application is completed by a Caring Professional, it cannot be considered by the Fund. By Caring Professional, we mean a person such as a doctor or a nurse, a charity sector worker or a social worker. This site also includes a page of resources for Caring Professionals.

There is full guidance to the kind of assistance we can give on the page called "how we can help". You can use this website to directly apply for funding for a woman you feel will qualify for our help. See "apply for funds" which is highlighted in red in the the top menu

Donations to Margaret's Fund can be made online securely on this site - anything small or large is most welcome. You can rest assured your money will go to a good cause and will be used to directly help women who are in financial need and suffering from illness in the UK.
