About The Idlewild Trust 

We are an independent grant-making trust that supports conservation and the arts across the UK. The Trust was founded in 1974 using proceeds of the sale of property owned by Peter Minet in Camberwell and Lambeth in the 1960s.

Since then we have been managing an endowment to enable us to distribute grants each year. We give one-off grants of up to £7,000 to charities working in the following areas:

• creating opportunities for professionals, working creatively and backstage, within the performing arts and visual arts, post-training, and at an early stage in their career; or
• the conservation of cultural heritage of recognised national or international importance
