If you are applying for £4,000 or less, you may apply to our Small Grants programme. The process and form are the same as for our main grants. We can accept applications for Small Grants at any time, and you can usually expect to receive a decision within three months.
We are always happy to discuss your application with you in advance, or to provide assistance on filling out the application form.

Evaluation Reports
If you have been awarded a grant, the Trustees will request an evaluation report to assess the impact of the grant. Returning this is a condition of our funding. Organisations are asked to provide a brief report within twelve months of receipt of a grant (or when the specific project has been completed).
Click the link below to download an evaluation template (Word document). We are happy to discuss other reporting formats if more appropriate for your project.
