Four short pages, about ten minutes. The first page checks the fund is right for you before you write anything.

This is the real template. Fill it in, then make it yours.

The first page asks the type of organisation, where the work happens and last year's income. Individuals, businesses, groups outside your area or over the income limit finish there with a kind ending, before they write a word. Everyone else gets a fit score for your panel, from their track record, your priorities and other funding.

Who it’s for

Foundations, community trusts and small funders running an open grants round.

Change the income limit, the area and the priorities to your own, and the eligibility rule and the score follow the options you keep.

Questions about this template

Does the eligibility check work on Free?

The questions do. Sending applicants to their own ending, and the fit score, are on Pro. Without them the form still collects every application in full.

Can reviewers see the score?

Yes. The fit score sits on each response, so the panel can sort and compare applications before they read them.

Can applicants save and come back?

Yes. Applicants can save a long application and finish it later from a link to their answers.
