If successful, applicants will be required to comply with the Lord Rootes Fund Regulations. One of the conditions within the Regulations is that successful applicants will normally be paid 80% of their award before starting their project. Award holders must undertake to supply a comprehensive report of their project and the remaining 20% of the grant will be paid only if the Committee judges that the report is satisfactory.

A short video about your project. The requirements for the video are:

video length not exceeding 120 seconds (2 minutes)
file size not exceeding 250 megabytes
