MSTART (Medical and Sporting Technology Research Trust)
At a glance
Key takeaways
- MSTART's stated purposes cover medical technology research, education in science and technology for young people, and amateur sport, so a project should sit clearly within one of these.
- The annual report gives £226,968 awarded in total, which may include grants to individuals, and it states no grant range, so size a request to the project rather than to any typical amount.
- No way to apply is published in the annual report or its register entry, so contact the trust directly to ask how to approach it and when it considers requests.
- The report describes individual donations for advanced medical treatment unavailable on the NHS and for young sporting talents early in their careers, so an individual's case should be framed around one of those.
- No geographic focus or exclusions are stated, though the trust is registered to operate throughout England and Wales.
