We will make sure your application is eligible and that we have all the information we need. We may contact you if we have any queries or need further information/evidence.
Applications for grants will be assessed by officers using a scoring matrix and will be passed to the Community Grants Panel for a final decision.
Decisions on applications for grants under £3,000 will be presented in a summary report to Members of the Community Grants Panel which will include the officer’s recommendation on the decision.
Applications for over £3,000 will initially be reviewed and scored by officers.
Applications will be submitted with an Officer’s recommendation to the Community Grant Panel for Members to decide.
