How to apply for a Grant

Application for funding should be made in writing and must include a covering letter and a completed application form (click HERE to open the application form as an Adobe PDF in a new window), (click HERE to open the application form as a Microsoft Word DOC)

All applications are also asked to include the following information:

1. The charity’s registration number if applicable: Garfield Weston Foundation policy is that bodies applying for funding should normally be UK registered charities BUT this restriction does not apply to a limited number of EXEMPT organisations - churches, educational establishments, hospitals and housing corporations.
2. A copy of the most recent report and audited accounts. Charities who are required to submit these to the Charity Commission (currently those with an income or expenditure of more than £10,000) should provide confirmation that this has been done.
3. An outline description of the charity’s activities
4. A synopsis of the project requiring funding, with details of who will benefit
5. A financial plan
6. Details of current and proposed fundraising

Slightly different requirements apply to applications from churches – click HERE for details.
