How to apply
Due to exceptional demand (four times the value of the initial funding available), this scheme has exceeded its provisional funding limit and is now closed to new applications.
-
If you have not yet applied for the TCCF, you are currently unable to start a new application. Given the success of the fund, we are hoping to run it again in future. In the meantime, you may wish to consider an EWCT Interest Free Loan.
-
If you have already received a TCCF contract offer letter via DocuSign, then your award is unaffected by this closure, and your project will need to be completed (and the grant claimed) by the date specified in your contract offer letter.
-
Projects already submitted for review will be considered on feasibility and impact rather than on a first-come-first-served basis. Please note that approval of an Expression of Interest means that the basic scheme criteria have been met, and that we are requesting more information in a full application. Approval of an Expression of Interest does not guarantee that your Club's project will be funded. Decisions on funding are made at the full application stage.
