LionHeart Grants

Grants from LionHeart


LionHeart grants may be accessed by past and present RICS professionals, no matter where in the world they are based. 


These include a range of one-off grants or regular grants (up to two years) designed to help individuals and families in certain financial circumstances*. We do everything we can to make access to financial help as simple and as fast as possible.


What can we give money for?
  • We can agree a regular grant to help cover general living expenses in certain circumstances
  • We can help with purchase of essential items such as a fridge, cooker etc
  • In some circumstances we can pay for respite support for those with caring responsibilities
  • Other one-off or recurring expenses that are particular to you
Each person who comes to us is treated as an individual; however, we do need to follow some general policies and guidelines. If you (or your partner) are a past or present RICS professional, can you also answer yes to one of these questions? 


  • Are you unemployed and in receipt of benefits?
  • Have you just been made redundant?
  • Do you have a long or short term illness or a disability?
  • Have you been bereaved recently?
  • Are you separating from your partner and struggling financially? 

Plus, does the following apply to you? 

  • You have more money going out each month than you have coming in
    and
  • You have capital or savings of less than £10,000 or equivalent (not including equity in the home you live in) and you are in the UK or a country that has state benefits for unemployment or ill-health
    or
  • You have capital or savings of less than £25,000 or equivalent (not including equity in the home you live in) and you are NOT in the UK or a country that has state benefits for unemployment or ill-health

If so, then LionHeart may be able to offer financial assistance.

 

If you have your own business or are self-employed and experiencing financial pressures, we might still be able to help. We can sometimes provide short term help to get you through a particularly tough time.


The best thing to do is to give us a call and speak to one of our support services team so that your individual circumstances can be considered. Even if you don't think we can help financially, please don't let that stop you getting in touch as there are many other ways we might be able to offer support.
