Q. Why do I have to
register?
We ask organizations that intend to apply to register so
we can write to the organization with a registration
number and details about how and where to send the
application. We also need to ensure that we have the
right number of Assessors in place to deal with the
applications.
A registration form can be found at www.cmadmin.co.uk

Q. What is Public Sector
funding?
Public Sector funding is
funding from Central or Local Government; Education or
Health Authorities. Money from the National Lottery
Bodies is not raised through taxation and is therefore
not classed as public funding.
