Key takeaways

  • Its stated themes are training and accreditation and women engineers, and its Training and Accreditation Grants Programme gives grant assistance for those purposes, so a request that clearly fits them is the strongest match.
  • The annual report shows total giving of £73,032, but no grant range is stated, so you cannot tell from it what a typical request looks like; keep your ask tied to a specific training or accreditation cost you can name.
  • No application process is published in the annual report, the register entry or its website, so use the contact shown to get in touch first and ask how it considers requests before you send a full proposal.
  • Its stated geographic focus is international, so explain how your work connects to that, and note that no exclusions are stated.
