The Tom Bowen Legacy Trust Fund UK (TBLTF) was formed to support children with a variety of disabilities. The object of the TBLTF is to improve the quality of life for children who have received Bowen Therapy treatment by providing grants for electrical, mechanical, sensory or electronic equipment as well as access to treatment, advice and food supplements from suitably qualified professionals where this may improve the physical, mental or emotional health of the child.
TBLTF is a non-profit organisation, set up with a small charity constitution. It was set up in 2010 as the UK branch of the original fund based in Geelong, Australia, formed in 2003 by co-trustees Ron Phelan (member of the Bowen Therapists' Federation of Australia) and Chris Reed (president of the Bowen Association of Australia). Meet the current Trustees.
Tom Bowen (the originator of the various forms of Bowen Therapy taught today) found the time he spent helping children with disabilities extremely rewarding and the TBLTF was initiated to continue this important work.
Applications for grants can be made online or by requesting an application form on our contact page.
Please share our digital leaflet (PDF) with anyone who may be interested in making a grant application, wishes to support the Fund, or is interested in finding out more about the Tom Bowen Legacy Trust Fund.
There are two versions - a high resolution leaflet, suitable for printing, and a low resolution leaflet, suitable for emailing to your friends, family and colleagues.
If you would like any of our printed (trifold) leaflets posted to you, please get in touch.

What was the world of Geelong's legendary Tom Bowen really like? What do those who who flocked to him have to say about his talent to 'fix them' when credentialed and envious others failed?
