Applications for funding: Guidelines for applicants

To apply for funding please choose one of these options:

Please note:

The maximum grant awarded from the main fund is £1000. Please bear in mind that this is the top sum and that we frequently offer to make contributions of less than £1000.

The Trust cannot award grants for work associated with political parties.

Please note that the Trust cannot subsidise costs for undergraduate or postgraduate studies.

There is no rule limiting the number of applications any one candidate may make, although no more than one grant can be awarded in any 12 months to any applicant.

The Trust exists to fund specific projects. We do not have sufficient resources to finance running costs. In normal circumstances we do not fund wages or contribute to living expenses. We will, however, consider travel and work-related expenses which contribute to socialist education and research.

The Secretary will be pleased to comment on draft proposals.

All recipients will be expected to submit a concise report back on completion of their projects.

Meeting dates: The Trust meets three times a year. The dates should be posted on the news page or you can find out by contacting the Secretary. If you wish to apply for a grant please email your completed application form to the Secretary at the address below, to be received two weeks in advance of the meeting. The Trust replies to all requests, irrespective of whether they have been successful. Unless further information is needed, you can expect to be notified within two weeks of the meeting.

All completed application forms should be sent to the Secretary at the following address: info@lipman-miliband.org.uk
