Society Funding

Who can apply for funding?

ECSU accepts funding applications from all clubs and societies which are run primarily or exclusively for current Emmanuel undergraduates. Both new and existing clubs may apply for funding.

Who can apply for funding?

Applications open at the beginning of Michaelmas and Lent terms for a week.

How do I apply?

Look out for an ECSU Committee FB post / email from the Treasurer.

What information do I need?

You need to be able to provide: the official name of your society; at least two contacts; your name, position and CRSid; the society bank account and sort code; the current society bank balance; the total value you request; an itemised list of funding requests; approximate society membership and average regular attendance; and, for sports societies, confirmation that the bursar has approved your risk assessment. If you don’t have a bank account set up yet, please apply anyways but you will only receive any funding you are allocated once you finish setting it up.

What does ECSU do with my application?

Once all applications have been received, then the executive committee will meet to allocate funding. Once funding levels have been decided, the Treasurer will then contact all those who applied for funding, informing them how much funding they have received. Money should be in society bank accounts within a couple of weeks of the allocation committee meeting.

How do ECSU decide how much to allocate to clubs and societies?

ECSU will only fund societies if they fulfil the following criteria:

What should I do if my club suddenly needs more money?

If the amounts allocated are not enough for your club to function or your club incurs unexpected costs or runs out of money, then please contact the Treasurer via treasurer@ecsu.org.uk.
