- Projects must be for charitable purposes and provide a public benefit.
- There is no limit to the amount an individual or organisation may request in support of a project. Based on the number and quality of requests received, however, the Trust may only be able to provide a contribution towards the project costs.
- Project costs may include salaries directly related to the project’s planning or delivery.
