If you are applying for funding for a new project, or you have never applied to ASB Community Trust before, it is important that you talk to us before filling in an application form.
All applications will be acknowledged in writing and applicants will be told when to expect a grant decision.
The Trust's board makes decisions on grants at the end of the month. All applicants will be informed, in writing, of the Trust's grant application decision early in the month following the board meeting. For example, an arts application lodged in April would be decided on in late July and a letter sent out early in August.
Applications generally take 4 months to process and consider. However, heavy demand in some sectors means it will be 5-6 months before some grant decisions are made.
