How to use the online system

Our new system for grants allows you to view details of the grant applicant and to score it in sections. The first part of the application is for information only and is not scored, please read this information for background on the application.

The rest of the application includes three areas which require scoring:

  • Project description
  • Community resilience
  • 5 Ways to Wellbeing
  • Social Value
  • Who will benefit
  • Budget
  • Match
  • Sustainability

Each area includes the following sections:

  • Guidance (where applicable)
  • Applicant answers
  • Scoring

Click on the section headers to expose the content. Click on them again to hide the information. This should help you to keep your place in the form. You will not be able to edit any of the applicant answers. Please leave your feedback in the comments boxes in the scoring section.

Guidance

We have provided guidance throughout on what to score and tips on how to provide useful feedback for applicants and the panel.

Scoring

To score areas please use the drop down box to select a number (Zero - 5) and provide comments in the box provided below. Please include positive comments as well as areas for improvement.

Recommendation

Once you have scored all the questions the form will automatically calculate your total score. Please check this score.

Please indicate whether you recommend awarding the grant. If you answer 'no' or 'maybe' you will be asked to outline your queries regarding the application. Please include any conditions for awarding the funding in this comment box.

Please also provide feedback for the group, including positive aspects of the application and areas for improvement.

Submission

To submit your assessment click on the 'preview' button at the bottom of the page. This will provide you with a summary of what you have scored, please double check the information is correct, then click the 'submit' button. 

You can save a partially completed application assessment if you want to return to it to complete at a later date, please make a note of the grant reference ID. This will remain on the 'Grants to be assessed' page. However, you can only save one grant application at any time, if you start a new grant assessment this will overwrite your draft. We advise you to finish the current application, submit and then log out where possible, so you will start with a new application when you log back in.

Once your assessment of an application has been submitted it will not appear within your assessor area. If you wish to amend a submitted assessment please contact the Salford CVS grants team on 0161 787 7795.
