As part of our application checks organisations are required to show they have the following:
- A governing document e.g. a constitution
- Two or more unrelated trustees, board members or directors
- Able to provide a correspondence address
- Relevant Safeguarding & Diversity & Inclusion Policies
- A bank account in the organisations name, or be able to nominate a registered charity that will hold a grant in trust for them
If your organisation needs support to ensure that you have the correct governance, policies and procedures in place, get in touch with our grants team on 020 7064 6500 or email grants@consortium.lgbt
