- Applications will be completed online. If you require a hard copy, please contact communityservices@braintree.gov.uk
- Applications will be appraised using the scoring matrix by the Council before submission to a panel consisting of Councillors for consideration and determination. Applicants will be notified of the decision (via email) within 5 working days of the panel meeting.
- If successful, a Grant Agreement will be entered into between the Council and the successful applicant following which the Grant will be paid by BACS.
- For projects with a duration of longer than 6 months interim monitoring reports will be required. All projects will have to complete an end of project monitoring report. Please keep copies of receipts and invoices related to the project / activity as these form part of our monitoring process. Grants through the Fund should only be spent on the items/purpose detailed in the Grant Agreement. If the grant is not spent on the approved purposes or there is an underspend, the Council has the authority to reclaim part or all the grant.
