Small Clore Fund
Open
Last updated: 17/06/2025

The Foundation was established by Sir Charles Clore in 1964 and is now chaired by his daughter, Dame Vivien Duffield. It supports UK charities working in the arts, education, social welfare and health. The Foundation enhances Jewish cultural life through support for JW3, the Jewish arts and community centre in London.
The Foundation would like to support more small to mid-sized arts and heritage organisations, with grants of up to £200,000, to develop Clore Learning Spaces. This could include building a new space or repurposing existing rooms. If you run an arts or heritage organisation with charitable status, have an annual turnover of less than £5 million, with a public facing remit and you are considering developing a Learning Space, please take a look at the Learning Space Guidelines and the Space for Learning handbook and our FAQs.
