The Feoffees Charity is made up of three charities known as the Poor’s Trust, the Town Trust, and the John Baron Trust covering the ecclesiastical parish of Nafferton, Wansford, and Pockthorpe and was started in 1890.

What do we do?

Provide assistance to people in special hardship in the ecclesiastical Parish. (Grants for funding cannot replace or augment State Benefits). Sometimes we may be able to help people from outside the Parish, but who have very close ties with the Parish.
Bursaries are provided for students. Grants may be made for primary, secondary and apprentice students for study trips and projects etc.
Funding is available for the enhancement and development for public benefit of community facilities and recreation grounds, the footpaths and play areas in the locality.
Aid and support shall be available for village institutions and groups which are of value to the community within the parish, including children’s and youth groups.
