Applications for funding must be for the benefit of residents of the Borough of Kingston

In addition, all organisations applying for grants must have:

• A constitution or set of rules setting out the organisation’s aims and objectives
   
• A management committee or equivalent of at least 3 members
   
• Bank or building society account in the name of the organisation (with at least two signatories).
   
• An accounting system such as annual accounts to record income and expenditure.

We would also expect any organisation working with children to have appropriate child protection policies and procedures and ensure all staff and volunteers are Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) checked.

Each grants programme may have specific eligibility criteria in addition to those listed above; please see guidelines for the relevant grants programme.
