You should familiarise yourself with the Grants Policy of the General Welfare Fund before you consider submitting an application. There are no deadlines, as we consider applications on a rolling basis.

You may submit an application for yourself or on behalf of someone else. If you are submitting an application on behalf of someone else, you should ensure that you have sought their permission in advance.

All applications for grant funding must be submitted using our online application system. To create a user account or to log-in to an existing account click here. You can submit multiple applications as long as they are for different people - we can only consider ONE application per household at any time.

When you log-in to our virtual office, you will be asked to complete a detailed application outlining your personal circumstances. You may see the list of questions you will be asked by downloading a dummy application form here. Some basic guidance in using the online application system can be found here.
