For projects involving a partnership of organisations, multiple boxes can be ticked at this stage.

Q - Where is your project located?
Enter your postcode here and click 'Find'. If you only know the first part of your postcode (eg S80) you can enter this and click 'Find'. A list of possibilities will be displayed. Select the relevant area by clicking the button on the left of the description, until a green dot appears.
If you don't know your postcode, click on the link underneath the box marked 'Don't know your postcode? Click here'. You can now enter the name of the location, (eg Rochester) and click 'Find'.

Q - How much (approximately) do you need to spend on the project?
From the drop-down list, select the range of values that best matches the total anticipated expenditure of the entire project.
