About the Isaac Newton Trust

The Isaac Newton Trust, Registered Charity no. 1209261, was established as a Trust in 1988 by Trinity College. The Trust promotes learning, research and education in the University of Cambridge, primarily by providing support to early career researchers and by making research grants to departments and programmes within the University and its constituent Colleges.

Donating to the Isaac Newton Trust

The Isaac Newton Trust receives almost all of its funding direct from Trinity College or from our invested capital. However, we are always delighted to receive donations large or small, towards our programmes and acknowledge donors (unless they wish to be anonymous) in our Annual Report.
