The Roger De Haan Charitable Trust was established in 1978 by Sir Roger De Haan CBE DL, Chairman of Saga Group, and his late father Sidney, Saga’s founder. One of the Trust’s aims has been to support charities and community groups in and around the Folkestone area, where most of Saga’s employees are based.

The Trust continues to offer financial support to a variety of charities and community organisations, with donations that can vary from relatively modest grants for community projects to much more substantial support for capital projects. In many cases the Trust is also able to offer advice and access to professional expertise. This is designed to help grant applicants to realise and manage their projects in a practical and cost effective manner.

The Trust is also giving considerable support to sport and recreation projects in the area, mainly through grants to enable development and improvements to facilities managed by sports clubs.

If you would like to apply for a grant in 2024, please note the following deadlines for submission:
26 January (for the February meeting)
30 May (for the July meeting)
4 October (for the November meeting)
