About the Trust

Three Guineas is a grantmaking trust that funds work to support the autonomy, liberty and civil rights of autistic, neurodivergent and disabled people.

Our work has three themes:

  • Autism: practical projects that support the autonomy, liberty and human rights of autistic and neurodivergent people.
  • Disability, violence and access to justice: projects working on Deaf and disabled people’s civic rights, or responding to violence against autistic, neurodivergent and disabled people. 
  • Human rights: projects that support trans and non-binary people’s civil rights and personal safety.

Grantmaking process

Open programmes 

We run an annual grants round for holiday play and activity schemes for autistic children and young people. We also run a biennial grants round for projects providing better access to justice for disabled people.

Other funding 

We fund a small number of other projects each year. We find projects that align with our values by careful research and talking to people active in our fields of interest. We tend to support these projects long term. 

We publish open grants data. To find out more about what we fund, please visit 360Giving.
