Completing your form

Before we can begin assessing an application for funding, we have to make sure we've got all the information we need. That's why it's vital that you send us a complete application. If your application is incomplete, the assessment of your application will be delayed while we wait for you to send us the missing information.

Here are our top tips for making sure your application has everything we need.

- Your accounts should be signed on behalf of the management committee, and by the auditor in the case of audited accounts.
- Make sure the right people sign the right places in the application form. We ask for a number of different signatures in different parts of the form - double check our guidelines before you get people to sign. If you're not sure what we mean, call us and check.
- Fill in the box on the form which tells us when your constitution was adopted.
- Send us in the right number of quotes for capital equipment - check our guidelines for more information.
- If your application involves property (land or buildings) make sure you follow our guidance booklets on Property Applications. We have a different booklet for different kinds of property and we have specific checklists for different kinds of projects - check that you're following the right one.

And last but not least

We have checklists at the back of our application forms - if you can tick all the relevant boxes, your application should be complete.
