What happens after you submit
Your request is given a reference number and assigned to a named person in the grants team. You get an email confirming it, and they are alerted at the same time.
Everything after that happens in one place. Track it under My Requests in your portal, add comments or attachments at any point, and see who it is with and what state it is in. If the grants team needs something more from you they will set the request to waiting on your response, and you will be emailed.
You can reopen the conversation on a request after it is completed, and nothing is deleted.
We aim to acknowledge your request within one working day, and to complete it within 3 working days.
