Holiday Fund

Assistance towards the cost of a holiday is available through the Joseph Collier Holiday Trust to current members of Southwark Charities who are in receipt of PENSION CREDIT. 

Do you have a holiday booked in your name of between 7-14 days to take place this year?

We have grants of £150 for current individual members or £250 for couples if both are members.

The fund is open from June until September 2025 or until the allocation has been awarded.

To apply you must email the following documents to operations@southwarkcharities.org.uk.

Proof of booking – the holiday must be in your name and be for between 7-14 days in this calendar year

Proof of receiving Pension Credits – This should be a letter from this year from the Department of Work and Pensions or a recent bank statement clearly showing the payment from DWP.

If you are successful, your payment will be made by BACS one week before your scheduled holiday to the nominated bank account we use for your regular stipend.

You must agree to complete an evaluation form on your return.

Should your scheduled holiday be cancelled or you are unable to attend the grant must be returned.

We are only accepting applications by email
