In its place, applicants need to contact the Lottery, to give them a brief outline of what you want to do, either through an online form, a phone call, a video, or an email. Nicholas Timms, Big Lottery Funding Officer for Central London, will outline new guidelines and process of this important funding programme and answer your questions. NB. Please read the funding criteria before registering for this event to check your organisation eligibility.
