Making
an Application The directors only consider applications from registered charities;
they do not consider appeals from individuals or from registered
charities for the benefit of named individuals.
On-going commitments, combined with the fact that the directors
are taking an increasingly active role in identifying projects
to support, means that uncommitted funds are limited and it
is seldom possible to make grants in response to unsolicited
appeals.
If applicants consider that their work might fall within
the areas of interest of the trust the following basic information
is required:
1. Charity
name and charity registration number
2. An
outline of the project for which funding is sought
3. Details
of the TOTAL amount required to fund the project in
its entirety
4. Details
of the amount already raised, or irrevocably committed,
towards the target
5. A copy
of the most recent annual report and audited accounts
Applicants
should endeavour to set out the essential details of
a project on no more than two sides of A4 paper, with
more detailed information being presented in the form
of appendices. In general, it is not helpful to include
video or audio cassettes.
In normal circumstances, papers received before the middle
of February, May, August and November will be considered
in March, June, September and December respectively.
All appeals are acknowledged and the applicants advised that
if they do not receive a reply by a specified date it has
not been possible for the directors to make a grant. |
