Our grant conditions

If you are successful in your application for a main grant, you will be told shortly after the relevant trustees meeting.

If the grant is for a project for which substantial funding still needs to be raised, we will discuss the most appropriate timeframe for releasing your grant and will ask you to provide regular updates on the progress you are making. However, in most cases we will require the grant to be taken up within 6 months of the award date. Therefore, it is important to tell us if you are unlikely to be able to draw down your grant within this period.

If the grant is for existing activity, or all other funding is already in place, we usually release payment as soon as your grant is awarded.

If we request a grant report, it should be sent with a copy of your charity�s latest annual report and accounts, and a covering letter from your chairman or treasurer

The grant report should provide information about:

• how our grant has been spent
• the impact our funding has made on your charity's work
• the people who have benefited (using qualitative and quantitative data where possible)
• the extent to which the project has been successful
• the lessons you have learned for the future
• any broader impact our funding has made either regionally or nationally

Please note that all grants awarded by the J Paul Getty Jnr Charitable Trust are subject to a standard set of grant conditions which can be viewed by clicking on the link. If you have any questions about these conditions, please get in touch.
