If an applicant does not meet the eligibility requirements or is subject to any entry restrictions, that applicant shall not be entitled to be adjudged a winner, and will not be entitled to an award in any circumstances.
The winners will be notified by email within 28 days of the closing date. Reasonable efforts will be made to contact the winner for 14 days but if the winner fails to respond to our notification attempts within this time or fails to meet any of the eligibility requirements or is otherwise unable to comply with these terms and conditions, we reserve the right to disqualify that applicant and offer the award to the next eligible applicant and thereafter until a winner is found.
It is hoped that applicants will spend the funds within 12 months of receiving the award, and produce a short report (typically one side of A4) about how the funds were used.
