The Ann Powtrell Foundation is a registered charity founded in 1699 under the will of Ann Powtrell of West Hallam, initially to aid young apprentices, but which has evolved over the years to assist a very much wider range of young people with costs associated with education and training and social and physical development. It operates exclusively in West Hallam.

If you are visiting this page because you are wondering whether you can apply for a grant, the following information gives a brief generalisation of the remit of the charity:

• Trustees may apply the income of the charity for the benefit of persons under the age of 25 years who are resident, or who have at least one parent resident, in the Parish of West Hallam
