Who can apply for funding
The rules may be different for each fund so it is always best to check with the funder directly. To apply for most grants an organisation will need to have:
- management committee of at least 3 people
- governing document (constitution or set of rules)
- bank account with at least 2 signatories – some funders will allow another organisation to receive a grant on your behalf
- record of annual income and expenditure
- safeguarding policy, if you will be working with children or vulnerable adults
- quotes for items over £1,000
You do not usually need to be a registered charity or company.
