PLEASE NOTE:

If your application includes equipment or services costing more than £200, you should upload two or more quotations at the end of this application form. This helps us confirm that you have sought the best value for money.

Section 7: Previous Grant Details
Have you previously received a grant from EGCT Community Fund?
If you previously received a grant from us for the same project, what is your fundraising strategy going forward?
We aim to support as many different community groups as possible, which means we are unable to guarantee ongoing funding for the same activities. Please explain how you plan to sustain your project in the future, including any steps you have considered such as participant contributions, fundraising, partnerships or applying to other funders.
If you have received a grant from us in the past, please tell us when you submitted your last due monitoring report?
