About your proposed project

The following questions are about the project or part of the project that you are seeking funding for, not the wider work of your organisation.

8. Please provide a detailed description of your project.

Your project description must address the following points:

  1. Why your proposed project is needed and what difference it will make to the local community (you can demonstrate this by linking your project to local plans or strategies).
  2. What activities will take place when, where and with whom.
  3. How you will spend the grant money.
  4. Which partners you are working with, if any, and how you’ll work together.
  5. How you will promote and encourage participation in the project.
  6. The outcomes you will achieve and how you will measure the success of your project.

A clearly described project will help decision makers understand your proposed project and determine whether to fund it.
