There is generally a two stage process for main grant applications for sums over £7,500. Most funding requests will require a Stage One application. There is no set format for this but you may download further information that we will need to assess your Stage One application properly at the foot of this page.
Applications are considered by the Main Grants Sub Committee and the Board of Trustees. If your project has a reasonable chance of being funded, based on your Stage One submission, you will be invited to submit a Stage Two application for a main grant which will call for much more detail about the project including detailed costings. Often at Stage 2 we specify additional information that we would need in order to be able to consider a grant. The stage 2 form can be downloaded by following the link at the foot of this page.
We strongly advise you to ring us to discuss your stage 1 application before you submit it. We are always pleased to answer your queries before you complete the form and to give advice on the application procedure. Giving us a call to discuss an application could save you a lot of time and effort and help improve your chances of making a successful application.
When you complete the form please make sure you have read our grant guidelines, checked eligibility criteria, and also any notes accompanying the form as these will certainly save you time.
Grants will normally be made for a maximum period of three years. It is unlikely that funding will be provided after this period.
Groups applying for capital only grants of more than £7,500 but less than £12,000 need not complete a stage 1 submission if they would prefer not to do so, but may apply for funding on a Stage Two application.
