Requesting Payment

You need to uplift your funding within 12 months of it being approved and you have the option of:

• Part payment of your grant e.g. if you are incurring costs over a period, the grant may be uplifted in instalments
• Part payment after the project is completed (where all our funding is not required)
• Full payment of your grant prior to the completion of your project
• Full payment after completion of your project

You don’t need to request payment as we pay these grants out automatically and payment will be made into the verified bank account you provided in your application.
