We accept applications from organisations within the CHO area. Organisations who are outside the area but provide services in the CHO area may also submit applications.
Closing date for applications is 12pm noon on Wednesday 23 March 2022
Suitable projects for funding
- Applications must be for one-off projects that can be completed within the year of application (excluding respite)
- We cannot consider applications that have major on-going revenue implications. These include the employment of staff, capital funding and running costs.
- We cannot consider applications for projects which are already covered by HSE funding.
- Projects that already have service level agreements or grant aid agreements with the HSE cannot be considered.
Funding limits
There will be an upper limit of funding awarded to an individual organisation. We’ll decide on this limit based on the number of valid applications we receive.
When we receive more than one application from an individual organisation, we will apply the upper limit of funding.
We recommend that you consider this upper limit if you are submitting more than one application.
You may have to prioritise your projects.
Based on previous years we imagine that individual grant allocations this year will be between €500 to €10,000.
An upper limit of €10,000 for applications relating to transport initiatives will apply.
Financial and governance requirements
By making an application for Lottery funding you are committing to the terms and conditions of the HSE’s Grand Aid Agreement (DOCX, 83.5 KB, 9 pages). You must sign the declaration form and be compliant with the financial and governance requirements.
