Activities & Mission

The focus of our work has two distinct remits: as an operating charity, responsible for the care and management of Waddesdon Manor near Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire and undertaking a more general grants programme primarily in the Arts & Humanities. In addition, the foundation undertakes a small grants programme focused on Buckinghamshire and the communities local to Waddesdon.
