Charitable funding proposals should address the objectives of the Nineveh Charitable Trust.
Other proposals may receive consideration, guided by the Trustees' views on what the Trust's Founders, Professor and Mrs James, would have supported.
In 1968, Professor Thomas E James and Mrs Marjorie F James founded The Nineveh Charitable Trust. The Trust was set up to relieve poverty and sickness in all parts of the UK and to promote the health, welfare and education of the general public.
The Trust encourages the study of agriculture, ecology and land conservation by awarding research grants and charitable funding to those who undertake projects in these fields.
