Extra Applications

Introduction

IWT Challenge Fund Extra grants, ranging from £600,000 to £1.5 million, are for projects aimed at expanding activities that have already demonstrated success and impact at a smaller scale. This can be through landscape or replication scaling, or through delivering systems change which will have sustained impact beyond the project’s original scale. Projects should last between 2 to 4 years maximum.
