It is with regret we announce that for financial or administration purposes we are suspending all grant programmes until sometime early in the new year (2027).

Important Note: Until such time we will only be able to consider the most urgent crisis applications from families that have been recently bereaved or those facing renewed or delayed trauma.

The Holiday Fund resources are almost completely depleted and the Family Support Fund was closed indefinately in late 2024. Both are due to a very significant loss of regular donor income. See the full 2024 update here.

The Legacy Crisis Fund is only suspended due to staff administrative capacity issues, and a need to evaluate what funds remain available to applicants.

Refer to the Important Note above.

About The Fund

"The NMPMFF is the first (and only) permanent national resource of its kind specifically established for those affected by deaths and killings in custody or state neglect. We make small grants available for families and their campaign groups across the UK to provide practical domestic assistance and campaign support. We are also developing a range of other support services for families, children and young people that are affected."
