Reporting Requirements
We hope our grant has helped to boost your organisation’s mission. We would love to hear how it was spent and what difference it made.
Reporting is quick and simple: you can upload a written report or answer our questions online, whichever suits you best.
When: within 12 to 15 months of your grant award
How long: up to two sides of A4 (interim reports: one side)
How: upload your report, or answer our questions online
Which report type do you need to send?
End of grant report
For all grants, once the funded work is complete.
No more than two sides of A4, written simply and without jargon. Bullet points are fine; we don’t want this to be onerous.
Interim report
For multi-year grants, one month before your next payment is due.
Up to one side of A4, telling us how things are progressing. One-year grant holders only need to send one if the project is differing significantly from what we agreed to fund.
What we’d like to know
Please use these questions as a guide (or as headings if you’re writing a report):
- Did the project follow what was requested in your grant application?
- What was most successful about the project, and why?
- Did anything not go to plan?We appreciate honesty and understand things don’t always go to plan.
- What lessons were learned over the course of the project?
- How has your project improved the lives of your beneficiaries?A short story or case study really brings to life the difference the project has made.
- Is this work continuing? If so, have you secured new funding for it?
- Did you spend the entire grant?If you are carrying funds forward, please explain your plans and timeframe for spending them.
Please include your grant reference (only if you were given one in our grant offer email).
Prefer email? Send your report to reports@southalltrust.org.
What happens next?
We read every report we receive, although it can take several weeks for us to do so. We’d also love your feedback on our grant-making process, good or bad; there’s space for this on the online form. The views of those we support are very important to us in improving our work.
Thinking of re-applying? You may like to send your grant report along with a new application. All new applications start with our online Eligibility Checker, and your organisation must be eligible to re-apply.
