Project Grants

These are usually one-off Grants for projects that are in line with the funding priorities of the charity. Grants of this type will usually be for up to a maximum of £5,000.  The project Grant application form can be downloaded here.
If you are unable to print out these forms, please contact us and we will send you a copy in the post.

In order to be eligible the organisation must either be a registered charity or have exempt status and operate (although not exclusively) in the parish of West Hackney.

The Trustees will consider Project Applications twice a year. Applications must be received by the deadline dates listed below for inclusion at the meeting:
30th January 2012
13th August 2012

Please supply your most recent Annual Report & Accounts.

If you are seeking support for staff salaries please supply a job description. If you are unable to complete the form yourself, another person may apply on your behalf.

Soon after the meeting, you will be informed of the Trustees decision. Your application may be supported in full or in part, rejected, or deferred until the next meeting.  Payments will be made after the relevent meeting and essential administration has been completed. Payments are usually made by cheque.

Please note that if successful your grant will be subject to certain terms and conditions. Other conditions, specific to your grant, may also be attached. Any inaccurate disclosure or failure to disclose relevant information requested, will be grounds to seek repayment of any grant made.

Please note that it can sometimes take up to nine months for these applications to be fully assessed, although 95% of applications are resolved during the Trustees meeting at their first presentation.

Applicants will be informed of the Trustees’ decision as soon as possible after that time.

Terms and Conditions can be downloaded here.
