Dear God...
“Hardly anyone can ever find God because God is right at the end of your mind after all the background thoughts are gone.”

Projects That Spark

Since 2004 Westhill has invested grants totalling more than £4.8 million mainly in the UK but with some international impact as well.

Click here to view all of our projects or follow the categories tabs to the left of this page. These pages showcase the sort of projects in which Westhill has been privileged to invest. Our focus is primarily in religious education projects and faith-motivated activities that enable individuals to transform their lives and the life of their communities through dialogue and understanding.
 

Your project featured on our website

As part of our funding Westhill invites projects that it supports to use this section of our website to communicate and promote their work. As well as promotion this can be an ideal way to inspire people, to make links with other organisations, and to show what your project has achieved when you apply for future grant funding. All you need to do is send your information to us, when requested, and then direct people to your website which will have its own domain name, for example: www.westhillendowment.org/Yourprojectname.
