Applications for individuals must be completed by a third-party sponsor such as a health care professional, social worker or charity/support group representative. Applications are assessed on a case by case basis, with funds allocated to those who demonstrate greatest need. The Foundation is open for  applications from groups in January, April, July and October, and will let applicants know the outcome within two months.
