Grantee FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if my organisation is awarded a grant?
The Trust will send the grant offer paperwork to your email address registered on the Charity Commission or University website. This will include a Grant Conditions agreement for you to sign and return to the Trust, along with your organisation’s banking details and any necessary ethical approval or other relevant documentation for the project.
See an example Grant Conditions document, although please note this is tailored to each project and special additional conditions may be included depending on the project.
Once these documents have been received, the first instalment can then be paid in the Trust’s next payment cycle.
How are Trust grants paid?
Does the Trust offer repeat or renewal funding?
Where a Main Grant has been awarded for a two-year period, the Trust may consider renewing support for a third and final year, depending on project progress and reporting.
Where a Small Grant has come to an end, the Trust may consider a follow-on Main Grant application, depending on project progress and reporting.
What are the reporting requirements for a grant?
Multi-year projects must provide annual reports to the Trust. All grantees must provide a final report within six months of their grant’s completion. Following the completion of the grant, all grantees must complete an outcomes questionnaire and three years later an impact questionnaire. See the Trust’s Monitoring Guidelines document for full details.
