Please read these before completing the Form.

1. Applicants should be qualified social workers who have completed at least two years of post-qualifying social work practice, working or looking for work in the UK. BASW membership will be taken into account.

2. Assistance with training courses or projects which will develop the applicant’s social work practice in the UK can be considered. Details of the course/training should be included with the Application Form - preferably a brief course description issued by the provider. Applicants should include whether the course/training is towards the Post Qualifying or Advanced Award in Social Work.

3. The sum requested from the Trust can be used for fees or expenses incurred (eg. travel; presentation of dissertation; books etc).

4. Where the total sum needed is higher than that requested from the Trust, an indication of ability to meet the balance of the fees/costs from other sources should be given.

5. Grants for courses of more than 1 year’s duration are made on an annual basis, and their continuation depends on the grantee’s successful completion of the year’s training, and the level of Trust funds.

6. Application may be made at any time of the year, and will be considered at the next available meeting of the Trustees. These normally occur in February, June, September and November.

7. The Trustees expect that successful applicants inform the Trust of the completion of their course/project.

8. No further grant application will be considered within 3 years of the completion of a supported training course or project.
