We’ve been updating how people can get in touch with us if they’re interested in partnering on our work on #urbanhealth. Hopefully it all feels easy to use — behind it is a lot of user-testing with different types and sizes of partners from across sectors gsttcharity.org.uk/shareyouridea
(as a #systems focused actor, that’s a pretty wide range of partners! We fund ideas ranging from tens of thousands pounds, all the way to multi-million pound initiatives; and back quick projects as well as multi-year initiatives)
Key points are that we don’t have a standard application form. Instead, we ask that partners start by sharing basic details about themselves and their idea online. If it sounds like something we could support, we take it from there
