CFSurrey Introduces a New, Easier Way to Apply for Grants
CFSurrey is excited to share a positive update to how applicants can access and complete grant applications across some of our programmes.
As part of our ongoing commitment to making funding more accessible and user-friendly, we are introducing a new application system, Plinth. Applicants will be asked to create a secure login to access their application forms. This is a simple, one-time step - once you’re set up, you can use your login for future applications within the relevant programmes.
One of the biggest benefits of the new system is that you’ll be able to save your progress as you go. This means you can complete your application at your own pace, come back to it when needed, and feel confident that everything is ready before you submit. It'll also mean that if you're invited to submit a full application, some of your information will auto-fill.
Initially this new approach will apply to the following CFSurrey programmes:
Main Grants Programme
Creative Wellbeing Programme
Strategic Transformation Programme
We will be rolling the Plinth system across all programme over the next few months.
To help everything run smoothly, it’s important to use the same email address throughout your application journey. This includes both your Expression of Interest (EOI) and any second-stage application, ensuring your information stays connected within the system.
We hope this new system makes applying to CFSurrey more straightforward and supportive for everyone! If you have any questions or need a hand getting started, the CFSurrey team is always here to help.
