Catchment Collective Grant-Making Form

Please complete this form to apply for funding to attend a course, host an event, or develop a project through the Leven Catchment Collective. If you have any questions about the form or application process, please contact us at levencollective@forthriverstrust.org.

To complete your application, you will be asked to provide the following information:

• A short introduction to yourself, or to your organisation, business or project if applying on its behalf (max. 250 words)
• A description of the course, event or project you are seeking funding for, including what you plan to do or learn, and the intended benefits or outcomes (max. 300 words)
• The dates the activity will take place (estimated dates are fine if not yet confirmed)
• The amount of funding you are applying for and what it will be used for
• Supporting documents where relevant, such as invoices, quotes or course information

Once we have reviewed and approved your application, the funding will be transferred to you. Following completion of the activity, we ask that you provide evidence that it has taken place, such as photographs, receipts or invoices, or through sharing some of the learning or experience with others involved in the community or farmer network

Please note that you cannot save your progress and return to the form later, or make changes after submission. We therefore recommend drafting your answers in a separate document first, and then copying them into the form once you are happy with your application.

Please tell us the date, or estimated dates, when the activity you are applying for funding for will take place. We will contact you after the activity has been completed to request a short update and any relevant evidence, such as photographs, receipts or invoices.

Below, you can upload documents or share links that help us understand the course, training or event you are applying for, how the funding will be used, and the costs involved.

Please include the following where relevant:

• An overview of the costs involved, including course fees and any travel or accommodation costs you are seeking support for. Please include the full cost of the activity, even if you are only requesting funding towards part of it.
• Any invoices, quotes or cost estimates you have received so far
• Any other relevant information, such as links to course information, training providers, event pages or programmes

This information will help us assess your application and is required before funding can be awarded and transferred.

Once the activity has been completed, we will ask you to provide evidence that it has taken place, such as photographs, receipts, invoices or other relevant documentation. This might be covered by whatever way you agree to share some of the learning or experience with others involved in the community or farmer network.
