What the funder asks grantees to report

Reporting

A brief annual report on a provided template, and possibly a site visit to see how the funds were spent.

Each year you will need to provide a brief annual report (we have a template for you to fill in) and we may also organise a site visit with you so you can show us how the allocated funds were spent and what was achieved.
