It is anticipated that 2015/16 will be the final year of this award process.
No awards are available to new applicants.
Applications
The 2012/13 review process is now complete and those who have been successful in their application will soon receive allocated funds.
The process for 2013/14 is expected to begin in April 2013. Notification letters and forms will be sent to those meeting eligibility criteria based upon the historic record held from 2011/12. These are currently planned to be distributed for the start of May 2013, with returns due in July.
