Important information about grant payments

Funding for activities during the Easter Holidays 2012 will be available for payment prior to activities taking place (if appropriate to the project).  Due to uncertainties about when funding will be transferred from Central Government we undertake to make payment for other activities by May 2012.  Depending on the amount of funding agreed this may be in one instalment or as the first of two instalments.  If this payment schedule is likely to cause your organisation difficulties, please contact Liz.Ryley@charnwood.gov.uk
