Before expressing interest, interested organisations can book 1-2-1 support calls with Sinmi Kesinro (Grants and Investment Manager) to clarify questions about the application process.

The deadline for expressions of interest is 5pm on 16 November 2023.

Shortlisted applicants will be taken through an evidence-based organisational health check by 16 December 2023.
