The Committee received a report of the Chief Grants Officer advising members of two grants, totalling £30,060, which had been approved under delegated authority since the last meeting of the Committee as follows:

·           Ataxia UK - £24,000 for one year for a Branch and Support Group Development Manager (17.5 hours per week) preparing information resources and training volunteers to provide support to Londoners with ataxia. The award conditional on the balance of funding being raised.

·           CareNet - £6,060 for on year’s support of a Project Co-ordinator (1 dpw) and associated project costs.

RESOLVED: That the contents of the report be noted.

In regard to a query on the financial assessment of applications under Delegated Authority it was agreed that, for these, there would be no automatic reference to the Chamberlain, rather that this would remain within the discretion of Officers of the Trust.
