Updates

  • 8 August 2022
    The guidance has been updated to reflect the fact that we now request less paperwork from applicants for urgency grants. The case for support is reduced to three pages, with a narrative capability to deliver, and we no longer require a justification of resources (costs will be checked following an award), CVs or letters of support.
