In October each year, the Trust makes available funds to UK applicants of up to £15,000 for research into diseases of poultry. This funding will be awarded following assessment of applications by members of the Trust. How funding is used after a successful application will not be stipulated by the Trust, but particular preference will be given to 'pump-priming' projects.
The Trust may decide that the annual sum will be divided among two or more applicants in any one year. In exceptional circumstances (which should be justified in the application), the Trust may award more than £15,000 to an applicant. Funding will only be awarded year-by-year and an applicant successful one year will need to apply again and compete for the next year's allocation.

Deadline for receipt of applications: July 31st each year
