The School FEAST Business Plan

There are two types of business plans that organisations can submit. Interested organisations should only complete one business plan:

1. Business Plan Template – New Members

This template should be completed by those organisations who wish to establish a new School FEAST centre or partnership. This includes any application for a proportion of the Capital Fund Grant.

2. Business Plan Template – Extension Request

This template should be completed by any existing School FEAST Network member that wishes to extend their centre or partnership beyond their original business plan. This includes any application for a proportion of the new Capital Fund Grant.

The deadline for submission is 10:00am on 26th September 2008. Late business plans will not be considered. School FEAST Network membership and Capital Grant funding awards will be announced from 20th October 2008.

Electronic copies of both templates are available through the links below.
