When to apply?
The Trustees meet three times per year in March, July and November. The next meeting of the Trustees is due to take place in November 2024. Applications will close when sufficient applications have been received. Closing dates may differ between the small grants programme and the large grants programme.
How to apply?
All applications must be submitted using the online application form. This can only be accessed by successfully completing the eligibility quiz using the link below, which will be active when we are open for receiving grant applications. A copy of example application questions can be downloaded by clicking here.
In order to reduce the number of unsuccessful applications, applications will close once we have received a sufficient number of applications. Applications for the November 2024 meeting have now closed. Detail of when to apply for the March meeting will be added soon. NB: The link below does not work while we are closed for applications.
If you have any problems please contact the Trust Administrator
After the meeting
Successful organisations will be sent a letter by email confirming the grant offer and any conditions. The grant acceptance letter must be signed by a senior staff member within your organisation and returned to the Trust along with bank details for payment if not already provided.
Unsuccessful applicants will be informed by email within two weeks of the Trustees meeting. Please note that it is the policy of the Trustees not to provide reasons for their decisions in this regard.
Re-applying to the Mrs Smith & Mount Trust
Unsuccessful applicants can re-apply after one year, however the Trustees expect to see sufficient changes within a new application.
