Funding is distributed through processes with decision-making committees set up. These committees are made up of people who don’t have a conflict of interest e.g. any individuals who are not part of or affiliated to, an organisation applying to the specific grant pot.

Each grant pot will have a separate decision-making committee which could be made up from; Harrow Together Trustees, Harrow Voluntary & Community Sector Forum Representatives and funders.

A conflict of interest register will be kept for each committee.
