Submit applicationIf you would like to discuss an idea you have with the Director send an email to him at director@tribunetrust.org He will be delighted to talk to you and will visit your project to provide any advice you require.
Community projects are expected to have policies in place in relation to the misuse of drugs and alcohol and to ensure those using or involved in the project are safeguarded from harm. There should also be a bank account for the project into which the funding can be paid. The Director can provide guidance in all these areas.
Funding applications are considered by the Trustees at their quarterly meetings in January, April, July and October. If successful, funding will be sent to your organisation. The High Sheriff for your area, or the Chairman, and Director will aim to visit your project to see how the funding has been spent, and appropriate media coverage will be arranged. The Trustees may set some conditions with the funding and the Director will maintain contact with you and your group to ensure the funding has been used in line with these conditions.
