This one has crept up on me, deadline 3 march: https://www.jrct.org.uk/sustainable-future I think its worth putting in a bit to run the initative described in the blog - maybe just to cover my time, a media helper, some equipment and some contributor honorariums for now? Will make doing everything else a lot easier once those things are sorted. Has anyone successfully applied to JRCT? It would be a bit of a rewrite from our usual one and I was keen to get on with the lottery re-application - i do hate writing to deadlines but it would be nice to be less all-in on the lottery. If anyone can help me do it that would be amazing, not gonna commit right now :) Cheers, Kim -- Dr Kim Foale (they/she <https://name.pn/kim-foale>) *Working hours: Mon-Wed 10-5pm.* Geeks For Social Change <https://gfsc.studio/> If anything about this email is confusing or unclear please let me know.

Hey Kim, Fractals co-op thought about going for this last year but decided next to after doing research into what/who they fund. In 2024 we thought - "The things it's been funding for the past 7 years or so are mainly campaign groups and/or advocacy groups. We are definitely not that and we don't have a specific social cause we work toward, especially under the fund's themes. " We decided not to go for it at fractals. If we (GFSC/tech-partners) do go for it it's probably important to frame ourselves with campaigning or advocacy as a primary function/offering of the organisation.

Hey Kim, Tipping Point has been supported by JRCT since we started, and we do align quite well to organising and campaigning work. Also, there were pre-existing relationships with the funders on our team. They have not be specifically interested in the tech stuff we do I will be applying cold to this from my other work on the Drax campaign, but I am not sure that is relevant to this space.
