Guide to your grant
This brief guide will help you understand some basic administration and financial aspects of your grant. 
It is your responsibility to plan, manage and deliver your project and to report to us regularly on progress. This guide takes you through what you need to do to set up your grant, claim payments from us, and how you tell us what your project is achieving. Detailing what we need from you so that we can make sure your funding continues uninterrupted.
Brand guidelines and promotional advice pack
- Have you considered how your project might generate local (and sometimes national) interest, broaden public understanding of mental health, and help reduce the stigma surrounding mental distress?
- Did you know that one of the Mind and Big Lottery Fund grant conditions is to acknowledge your award publicly?
- Did you know that as an awarded project you have made a commitment to using our combined logo and must refer to Ecominds in all the promotional materials which you develop?
To help answer all of these questions, we’ve developed a new user-friendly Brand Guidelines and Promotional Advice Pack. This is packed with tips on how to develop promotional materials, Ecominds logo guidance, statements to officially acknowledgement your grant, template wording for leaflets, useful mental health facts and figures, a press release template, and much more.
Download the complete Ecominds brand guidelines and promotional advice pack here or simply download the sections you need help with below:
Logos
To help save you time we’ve created the logo in several different sizes so all you need to do is simply download the size you need and insert it into your material.
Click on the logo size you require to download, it will then open in a seperate window. Once it has opened in a seperate window, right click and select 'save picture'. Please refer to the Brand Guidelines and Promotional Advice Pack for further guidance.
