Because funds forgrants are limited. the Trustees have decided as a matter of poliry that grants should be restricted to beneficiaries who are children aged 16 and under. A body seeking funding must therefore satisfy the Trustees that any grant will be applied for the benefr( of children in that category. Where a grant 1$ sought for purposes whlch would benefrt children with physical disabilitie5 as well as those with mentsl disabilities, at least 75% of the proposed beneficiaries must be children suffering from mental disorder or impairnient.
