FAQ
You are eligible for a grant if you are:
- a registered charity.
- a community interest company (or CIC).
- an individual funding a not for profit project, primarily to benefit a community or with a view to pursuing an environmental cause or social purpose, rather than to make a profit for self-interest.
Where the studies or training relate directly to the charitable project which is being delivered under the terms of the grant, this is acceptable.
