To receive a grant your project will need to meet the Association's Objectives which are:-
The promotion of the provision of drinking water for people and animals in the United Kingdom and Overseas
The preservation of the Association's archive materials, artefacts, drinking fountains, cattle troughs and other installations
The main criteria for considering a grant to a non-UK project are that they would provide drinking water for people and animals, and the charity requesting the grant is registered in the UK.
In addition, in considering an application for a grant trustees also require the following information:
A copy of the most recent audited accounts
How has the cost of the project been ascertained, e.g. qualified surveyor etc,.
How many people/animals is it estimated would use the fountain/trough in a day
Will the charity supervise the project, if not who would
Where is it anticipated the remainder of the funds to complete the project will come from.
