Our process
To be eligible to apply, you must:
-Have at least three unrelated members of the management committee/ Directors, or Trustees.
-Be either a registered charity, charitable company/CIC that is limited by Guarantee or a constituted community organisation.
-If you are a national organisation you will need to have a permanent local presence or branch in Lancashire that delivers projects and services for people in the area. There should be a local management team and evidence of income and expenditure for Lancashire activity, rather than national accounts.
Please note that we do not award retrospective grants – be sure to allow plenty of time to go through the grants process. For groups applying we would recommend you allow a minimum of 3 months. The process for individuals can be turned around quicker but please do still allow plenty of time, the process can take up to 2 months.
