SUBMITTING YOUR APPLICATION
Please ensure that you have read our current Guidelines.
Before submitting a formal application, applicants are encouraged to email a concise explanation of the project (no more than one side of A4) to the Trust Administrator - Mrs Lavinia Sidgwick (see 'Contact Us').
To submit a formal application, you must mail a hard copy - which might have more detail and will include a completed grant application cover sheet along with any supporting documentation - to Mrs Lavinia Sidgwick.
You are welcome to telephone and discuss queries before submitting a formal application.
Please note that we often ask one of our independent advisers to visit organisations who apply to the Trust.
It helps if you advise us which other trusts you are applying to as we may consult them, unless you specifically ask us not to.

FOLLOW UP
All appropriate new applications are acknowledged: stamped addressed envelopes are welcomed.
We aim to inform applicants of the Trustees' decisions as soon as possible after the quarterly meetings.
