Apply for a grant

From the Northbrook Community Trust

​If you are a Devon charity, trust or organisation supporting disadvantaged children and young people under 25 across Devon, apply now for a charitable grant from us.

​​If you have passed the eligibility questionnaire, you can then proceed to make an application. Please read the Terms and Conditions and the Data Protection Statement carefully first, as you will need to accept these before a grant can be awarded.

If you wish to make a grant application, please log on to complete the on-line grant application form. You may log on more than once to complete the form and your entries will be saved.  When you are satisfied that the application is ready for submission, please press the submit button and it will be automatically sent via email to the Clerk to the Board of Trustees. All supporting relevant documents will need to be sent via email to the Clerk on submission of application. Alternatively, please printout a hardcopy application form, also linked below, and post to the Clerk along with all relevant supporting documents.  All details are on the form.

The Clerk to the Board of Trustees will keep you informed how your application is progressing.   We will normally let you know what the Benefits Committee has decided and if your application has to be submitted to the Board of Trustees for approval within seven days of the meeting unless further information is required.  You will be notified of the final decision of the Board of Trustees and if approved, the next steps in awarding the grant.

Northbrook Community Trust will not enter into any further correspondence if your application has not been approved but this does not necessarily mean that applications will not be successful in the future.
