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 A close and collaborative partnership – we take a long-term view to make sure every idea gets the space and resource to create impact. We co-produce projects and provide financial, strategic and practical support to make real change
(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 We don’t have a standard application form and we don’t want to create extra work for you, so in the first instance please send us a brief description of your project in your preferred format. It could be a short note, a video of you describing your idea, or anything else you think will help us understand what you’re aiming to do
