Before completing an application please take the time to review our grant giving conditions below to ensure that your organisation is eligible to receive a grant from us.
All grant applications are considered on their individual merits by our Grant Committee.
Applications up to £5,000, are considered outside of one of our quarterly Grant Committee meetings, on a monthly basis, whilst larger applications, up to £30,000, must be discussed and agreed at one of full Grant Committee meetings.
Grant requests over £30,000 will be reviewed by the Grant Committee initially, before being forwarded to our full Board, if appropriate, for their consideration.
We do not support requests for funding that is attributed to the ongoing payment of core salaries, utilities, rent or operational expenses.
However, in exceptional circumstances, we may consider funding towards salary costs as part of a new project, but only for a set period of time.
To help you fill out the grant application form you will need information about your organisation and project, including:
The form will be saved as you go so you can begin an application and exit part way through without the worry of losing your information.
Completed applications for grant requests above £5,000 must be submitted at least one month ahead of our Grant Committee meetings and you can expect to receive a decision from us within two weeks after the Grant Committee meeting taking place.
Grant applications which miss the deadline will not be considered until the following Grant Committee meeting.
More information on the dates of our Grant Committee meetings can be found on our Events pages.
Grant applications of £5,000 or less may be submitted at any time. These applications will be collated and circulated to Grant Committee members by email on a monthly basis, usually in the third week of each month.
