Only one application per grant round will
be considered from each hospice.
Applying online
Grants can be applied for quickly and
easily online. There is more guidance on setting up and using your online account elsewhere on our website.
If you are successful, we will ask you to
report back on your grant by referring to the answers you have written on your
application form, so it is important to be realistic in your answers.
Before you can access the online application form you will be asked several
questions in the eligibility filter. Responses to this are not sent to Help the
Hospices but, if answered correctly, will allow you to access the form.
Accessing and completing your
application form
To begin a new Towergate Foundation small
grant online form open a new application form and
complete the requested information. The first page after signing in will be the
eligibility quiz.
To return to a saved application, sign into your existing account. This will
take you to a page which displays both your completed and in-progress
applications.
When you are filling in your application
form, please give concise answers as some questions have a limit on the number
of words you can write.
Applications can be spell checked before
submission by clicking the tick beside each box. However it may be easier to
compile your answers in a word document first, then copy them into the online
application form. This makes it is easier to count the number of words as well
as check for any spelling and grammatical errors.
Submitting the online form
Once you have completed the form you can
submit it online. To submit, go to the last page of the application form and at
the bottom is a ‘review and submit’ button. This allows you to check through
your application before sending it. Once you are happy with it, click ‘submit’.
You will receive an automated email
confirming your application has been submitted and is now under
consideration.
If you do not receive a confirmation email
then the application has not been submitted.
A copy of your application is available for
you to access on your account page under submitted applications.
Supporting documentation
Please send by post or email (scanned
copies) to the grants team:
-
a copy of your hospice’s most recent
audited accounts (if you have not already sent them to Help the Hospices for
the hospice accounts project)
-
any other supporting information.
Deadline
Deadline for submitting an application and
supporting documentation is 5 March 2012.
