Applications must be submitted in plenty of time and no later than 3 weeks before
the meeting dates.
The Board will consider each application very carefully and make a decision based
on how it will benefit Muir Group residents or their communities.
Once a decision has been made, you will be notified within 4 weeks of the meeting
date.
If you have been successful, we will expect certain things from you in return such
as:
· an acknowledgement of the funding received
· a simple review of the outcome and benefits of the project
· a progress report if the project is continuing over a period of time
If you have been unsuccessful, we will write to you and explain why.
This does not mean you can’t apply again.
You may want to modify your project or idea to fit more closely with our criteria.
