Applications are discussed at our Trustees meetings which take place 5 times a year. Completed applications should be submitted by the 1st of February, April, June, September or November for a decision to be made at our meeting within that month. Applications received after the 1st will be discussed at the following meeting. However if there is an urgent need please contact us and we will, of course, try to help where possible.
