What happens next?

We consider funding applications on a bi-monthly basis.

Once applications are submitted to The Gas Safety Trust you will receive a confirmation of receipt and your application will be sent to the Grant Review Group who initially assess the request and may require further information or clarification. The grant is then presented to Trustees at their bi-monthly meetings. They with confirm, defer or reject any grant award at this point.

The Head of Charitable Operations will inform you of their decision within 48 hours of a Trustees meeting.

It could take up to 2 months to receive confirmation depending on the amount of funding requested and the timing of submission in relation to our regular review meetings.

When the Trustees have approved a funding request you will be informed of the appropriate reporting requirement about your programme/project and at the completion of funding timescale all applicants are required to complete a Grant Report Form.

It is the intention of Trustees to ensure that the application system is as simple and effective as possible and we appreciate feedback, and comments, on this procedure.
