Please ensure that all those associated with an application have read the section giving information on the categories which the Trust does and does not support.
Please complete our online Enquiry Form or print off the PDF version and return this to the Trust. This will enable us to consider whether your outline application should be put forward for consideration at a Trustees Meeting.
Please note that, in view of the volume of applications received, we are no longer able to take enquiries by telephone. For all enquiries, please email – mdonnelly.moffatgroup@gmail.com
Once the Enquiry Form has been reviewed, we will contact you to ask for an application form to be completed and submitted for discussion at the next Trustees Meeting or to advise that your outline application does not meet the criteria of the Trust. The application form can be downloaded from this link – Moffat Trust Application Form application.pdf.
The Trustees meet quarterly in February, May, August and November. You are advised to submit your application as soon as it is ready and it would be unusual to have to wait more than 3 months for a decision. You may be contacted for more information or to arrange an assessment visit. The deadline for completed application forms is the 15th of the month prior to the meeting.
Please note that, as with other charitable trusts, The Moffat Charitable Trust receives more applications than it has funds to support. Even if a project fits within the guidelines and a detailed assessment has been made, the Trust may still be unable to make a donation.
Effectiveness of Funding
The Trust is keen to ensure that the funding it provides is effective. In this respect, all organisations receiving a grant of £5000 or more for one year or more will be asked to complete a simple Evaluation Form.pdf. In addition, we may ask organisations in receipt of a grant for more than one year to submit a report on an annual basis before subsequent payments are released.
