For Individuals and Families
How can I make a difference to my local community? Which charities are doing good work on the ground in the region, and how do we select the best ones to support? Will my donation be used effectively?
You want to help, but it can be hard to know where to start with your giving.
Whether it’s in memory of your loved one, to give back to your community where you have found success, or to support a cause that you are passionate about, Quartet makes giving easy for you.
Making it easy to make a difference
We’ll help you identify the causes that are most important to you and explore the range of options available.
By understanding your interests we will help you to get the most from your charitable giving. We’ll share our knowledge of local needs to help you develop your awareness of the issues you care about most and guide you as you develop how you want to give.
Through a series of project visits, discussions and background research we will support you to make informed decisions about your giving, secure in the knowledge that you are meeting pressing local needs.
“We’ve been along to meet lots of projects and different organisations and we’ve really been able to focus and target where our funding goes.”

Create a named fund
By setting up a named fund with Quartet you get all the flexibility and control of your own charitable trust without the complex administrative burden. In addition, you get access to expert advice and support from us to help you direct your giving most effectively.
“The team at Quartet always works with us to ensure that our wishes are being met.”

You can be involved as much or as little as you want in the decision making. If you prefer, you could leave it up to us to allocate grants to a range of causes across the West of England at our discretion.
Different types of donations
You may make a gift of money or an item of value such as shares, property or other investments to set up a fund, or leave a gift in your will.
At your discretion
You can request that grants are paid out in the name of your fund, or anonymously. We can organise publicity around your fund if desired.
