Each year for several years the Paristamen Charity has invited charities to propose an imaginative “Blue Sky” initiative as a one-off project where we say: “If we offer you £25K, what could you do?” in a particular field. The theme varies from year to year.
A major initiative for a grant awarded in March 2023 for a project Christian Perspectives on Scotland’s Constitutional Future was completed in summer 2024. For details of this and previous awards see the page Blue Sky and Large Grants programmes.

Future Blue Sky Awards
We have not awarded any Blue Sky grants since the year 2022/23: our main focus is now on increased awards under our Responsive and Planned grants. However, from 2024/25 onwards we are receiving some further donations and we are exploring some possible partnership grants, working closely with other organisations. More details will be available in due course.
