Who is applying? | Funding information |
---|---|
A student (further and higher education and post graduate study) | • Transport costs (travel to and from place of study) • Books related to course of study • Items of equipment related to course of study • Contribution to student accommodation • Contribution to course fees |
An individual who requires social care in the community support | Adaptations to the home e.g. wet room |
A non-constituted community group | Applications which have direct and tangible benefit for people living in the Glengarry area |
A constituted group or organisation | • Capital costs (e.g. resurfacing of road, upgrading buildings) • Revenue costs (e.g. salary costs, volunteer expenses, transport) |
An individual applicant | • Funding towards a training course or participation in a sporting event are examples, please contact us with any queries |
For organisations and groups making an application including capital costs, we will require you to explain the rationale for applying to the Trust if we see from your accounts that you already have sufficient funds to cover the project (e.g. that those funds are restricted for use on other activity).
We welcome applications which demonstrate an element of match funding, in particular for larger projects which involve capital funding. However, we are also able to offer full funding for projects and also to act as a match funder ourselves for applicants applying to other grants if required. Please contact us for advice and support if you have any queries about this.
What we are not able to fund
Please note that we are unable to consider applications from the following:
- Individual applicants who do not reside in the Glengarry community council area
- Individuals applying for regular tuition costs or weekly fees for attending classes
- Projects which have already started or have taken place
- Projects which do not demonstrate a benefit to the individual or wider community within the Glengarry community council area
- Projects which promote particular religious or political beliefs
- Projects which do not comply with equal opportunities
- Projects which would replace statutory funding
