Only 1 year main grant applications will be accepted from the last 3 deadline dates

There is a two stage process for main grant applications for sums over £7,500. Most funding requests will require a Stage 1 application.

Applications are considered by the Main Grants Sub Committee and the Board of Trustees.

If your project has a reasonable chance of being funded, based on your Stage 1 submission, you will be invited to submit a Stage 2 application for a main grant which will call for much more detail about the project including detailed costings. Often at Stage 2 we specify additional information that we would need in order to be able to consider a grant.

We strongly advise you to ring us to discuss your Stage 1 application before you submit it. We are always pleased to answer your queries before you complete the form and to give advice on the application procedure. Giving us a call to discuss an application could save you a lot of time and effort and help improve your chances of making a successful application.

When completing the forms please make sure you have read our guidelines for funding on this website and also any notes accompanying the form as these will certainly save you time. Please also feel free to ring the Hillingdon Community Trust office with any queries.

Please note when you are completing your application you will be able to return to it if you need to log out at any point but once you submit the form you cannot go back into the application.

When you have completed sections A-E, please read section F which sets out the information that we will need in the stage one application. Please upload a description of your project in either Microsoft Word or PDF Format with a maximum 2 sides of A4 in at least 11pt font.
