Waterpark Friendship Limited

Waterpark Friendship Limited is a UK-registered charity, established on 5 February 2007 as a private company limited by guarantee, dedicated to advancing Jewish religion, religious education, and alleviating poverty among individuals of Jewish background and those served by aligned charities. Rooted in values of faith, education, and community support, it channels resources through strategic grant-making to sustain Jewish religious life, enhance educational opportunities, and promote resilience via poverty relief, with a trustees-led approach emphasizing sustainability, impact, and mission alignment.

It funds thematic priorities including Jewish religious education at all levels, faith schools, youth programmes, cultural initiatives, operational support for charities, and anti-poverty projects targeting Jewish communities, particularly children, young people, and those of Jewish ethnic origin. Grants support project costs, core operations, and general charitable purposes for pre-selected religious Jewish educational institutions, registered charities, voluntary groups, and aligned organisations delivering education, faith-based services, or relief efforts.

Eligible applicants are limited to UK-registered charities, community groups, and academic institutions based in the UK (principally England and Wales), with a preference for small to medium-sized entities capable of mission-aligned delivery; no strict income thresholds apply, but a Jewish religious focus is mandatory. Unsolicited applications are not accepted—grants are awarded at trustees' discretion via internal allocations, typically £5,000–£25,000, with annual totals £55,000–£127,000 and no published deadlines or open rounds.

Distinctively, it excludes non-Jewish causes, individuals, and unaligned projects, prioritizing exclusive support for Jewish religious advancement and education, setting it apart as a values-driven funder for UK Jewish sector resilience without public application processes or impact reports.
