Our trustees receive a large pack of information for each round and appreciate clear, concise information that enables them to easily understand; how your project will benefit people in our area, exactly what activity or work you will undertake in order to achieve that benefit and how you will monitor your project to assess and evidence that it has met the original aims. When we ask how you know that your project is needed, we would like you to tell us how you have consulted and involved the people who will benefit, to create your project plan. You can include general statistics on need, but you also need to tell us how you know your project is appropriate and will be accessed by the group you intend to help.
We are an outcomes funder, so the outputs and outcomes table are an important part of the application and will help us assess the value for money of your project and whether you are clear and will be able to assess the difference your project will make.
