Before applying for our Emergency Grants (VRF), you'll need to register for an account. Here you'll find FAQs about our grants and guidance on registration.

How to register

There are 4 stages to the registration process:

  1. Registration Form part 1

    • About you, your organisation and line manager.

  1. Registration Step 2

    • Brief safeguarding details. To complete this section, you will need to upload your safeguarding policy or include a web link to the policy.

    • If we need more information or evidence, we'll return the application to you.

  1. Line Manager Verification

    • Your line manager will just need to respond to an email confirming your role and suitability to apply for emergency grants.

  1. Account Active

    • Registration process complete. You can now apply for emergency grants on behalf of your clients.

If we need more information to assess your registration, we'll add notes to the form and return it in the portal letting you know what we need. This doesn't mean we've declined your registration - just that we have some queries, or don't quite have what's needed! We'll aim to process any newly supplied information as quickly as possible for a quick turnaround.

Please read the instructions on how to register.

Before registering please read our Grant Making Policy.
