Making
an Application
The Trustees only consider applications from registered charities;
they do not consider appeals from individuals or from registered
charities for the benefit of named individuals. Please note there is no application form. Applications must be
sent in hard copy and NOT by email.
On-going commitments, combined with the fact that the Trustees
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 Trust's grant-making policy, click areas of interest to double-check, 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. A budget and costings for the life time of the project
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 normal circumstances, papers received before the middle
of February, May, August and November may be considered
in March, June, September and December respectively. Visits to appeals may be made by the Secretary and Trustees.
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 Trustees to make a grant.
