External Grants Funding Programme

Expression of Interest Form 2024

This Expression of Interest form invites charitable organisations working directly with the RAF Veteran community to provide an initial assessment of your project to allow the Fund to assess its potential before we invite submission of a full application form.

The maximum grant you can apply for is £5K. You must set out how your project would support the RAF veteran/s in a way which is not already being delivered by the Fund. For more information, please visit our website.

The deadline for submission of your Expression of Interest is by cease work on 2nd December 2024.

We aim to provide successful Eofls with an application form by NLT cease work on 4th December 2024. Completed bids must be returned to us by the deadline of cease work on 9th December 2024. Successful applicants will be notified within seven working days after that date. Please note that an invitation to submit a full application is NOT a guarantee that you will be granted funding.
