Isn't it odd how distrusting we are of people trying to give money to anthropologists....
Jonathan Parry (Prof at LSE) is a trustee according to the link. That must be a good sign, no? It would imply it's trustable and not involved with corporate sponsorship.
They're on the Charity Commission site too (http://apps.charitycommission.gov.uk/Showcharity/RegisterOfCharities/CharityWithoutPartB.aspx?RegisteredCharityNumber=291071&SubsidiaryNumber=0) and have registered charity number of 291071.

Well, I googled using 'camel trust' and 'anthropology' as search terms and came up with this site immediately, first hit. No idea whether it's legit or not - that's for you in the UK to work out - but there are plenty of contact details and info on it. I'd be asking whether this is linked to any kind of corporate funding and if so what.

completion of an original academic publication, or the completion and
submission of a grant application (or any combination of these).
Eligibility:

from a UK university, and the degree must have been conferred after
30th September
2010.
· There are no restrictions on nationality.
· Applications are invited from scholars in temporary employment or
without any formal employment, but not from those who already hold a
permanent faculty position.
· Research on any thematic area and geographic region will be
considered.
The closing date for applications is *1 September 2013* and the research
proposed may be done at any stage during the period between 1st November
2013 and 30th September 2014. Applications should consist of a one page
cover letter, a short CV, a one page outline of the proposed research
activity, a one page budget, and an article/chapter-length sample of
writing. In addition, the names of two referees should be provided who may
be contacted by the Trustees. Applications, together with all the
documentation, should be emailed to:[log in to unmask]
The successful applicant will be contacted in the course of October 2013.
By the end of the grant period (that is, by 30th September, 2014) she or he

activity along with a short account of the fieldwork conducted, or a copy
of the article completed or the research application submitted,
The Trustees regret that they cannot enter into any correspondence with
unsuccessful applicants or offer further advice on the form that
applications should take.
Best wishes,
The Camel Trust Trustees
