When an application is received, we will assess it and may pledge to fund up to 50 per cent of the total project cost to a maximum of £5,000.
Each project will be assessed by a scoring system using the answers to the projects’ questionnaire and additional weighting will be given to those working in areas or with people that have been assessed as most deprived in the city (based on 2010 index of deprivation). Being in an area of low deprivation does not discount anyone from receiving funding.
We will aim to assess all applications within four weeks of receiving them. When proof of other funding and any other required documentation has been produced by the applicant organisation, funding will be transferred within a further four weeks.
