About this service
Oakham United Charities is a long-standing local trust dedicated to supporting the educational aspirations of young people in the Oakham area. They recognize that the costs of books, specialized equipment, and study materials can be a barrier for many students. To help alleviate this, they offer small, practical grants of up to £100 to eligible individuals aged between 16 and 22. This support is specifically for residents of Oakham, Barleythorpe, and Gunthorpe. By providing these grants, the charity aims to invest in the local youth, ensuring that financial constraints do not stand in the way of learning and personal development within the community.
