UCLH Cancer Fund – Grant Application Guidance
Our objective is to make a meaningful difference to the lives of people affected by cancer at University College London Hospitals (UCLH). We do this by funding projects, medical equipment, research, and education that enhance patient care and improve the hospital environment for visitors and staff.
The Cancer Fund welcomes applications for items, activities or projects which support patients, staff and research at UCLH.
How to Apply
To apply for a grant, please complete each section of the below form. If you have any queries about the application process, or would like to request the form as a word document, please email us at uclh.
If a decision is needed urgently, please inform us when you submit the grant request. If the grant is approved, it should be acted upon within the agreed time-frame. Should more than three months elapse between the applicant's receipt of the approval and the arrival of the goods/invoice, the grant may be considered void.
NB: If you are planning a project which needs substantial funding of over £5,000. Please let us know at the initial planning stage, as it may be possible to fundraise specifically in support of the project.
Review process
Grants are reviewed on a rolling basis with decisions made in a timely manner - we will aim to provide a decision within three weeks. If the request is urgent, please indicate this in the email submission. Grant decisions are made by the Co-chairs of the Cancer Fund:
- The Cancer Divisional Managers, Kirit Ardeshna and Lois Roberts
- The Head of Charitable Giving, Carol Haraldsson
- The Cancer Fund Manager, David Milsom.
After receiving a grant
Successful applicants will be required to provide an update or brief report on the progress and impact of the funded project, activity or item. You will also be expected to confirm how the Cancer Fund will be acknowledged. These details will be agreed upon after your application has been reviewed.
