Guidance to Applicants

Applications must be made using the form provided. Download Word document here. Any applications submitted without a completed form will not be considered by trustees.
Applicants are strongly advised to read the information provided on the Objects page of this website before completing an application and submitting it to the trustees for consideration. Please note that applications under object three will next be taken and considered in 2027.
Only applications which meet one or more of the trust’s objects will be considered. To help your application, we also suggest that you read the Trust’s Grant Making Policy.
Applications may be accompanied by supporting documentation that provides additional information about the project for which a grant is sought and must be accompanied by a mini-cv of the applicant/principal investigator.
Applications will be considered at one of the meetings of the Trustees (normally at the meeting held in January) and should be submitted by the end of November preceding the meeting at which the application is to be considered.
Currently, the Trustees may be able to allocate in the order of £30,000 per annum and prefer to support several projects each year.
Upon completion of their project successful applicants will be required to submit a full report or complete a feedback form (download Word document here), analysing the success of the project, providing full financial details and confirming that all legal requirements have been fulfilled.
