The applications will be reviewed by our grants committee, further clarification may be requested, and recommendations will be made to the Trustees who will make the final decision by the end of April. They will take into account the merits of the application, how it furthers our aims, and the availability of funds.

Budgets
We are normally able to give grants totaling £30,000 to £40,000 per annum. In exceptional circumstances we would consider larger applications to be met from our reserves. This would be for a major project eg a building, that would permanently enhance the health services or health of the people of Emsworth.
