* ‘Time apportioned’ refers to how grant-funded activities and associated costs are distributed over the duration of the research grant. Costs such as equipment, travel, consumables and subcontracting are allocated to the specific periods in which the activities occur. For example, if a two-year research grant includes £100,000 for equipment that’s required at the beginning of the project, that expenditure is fully apportioned to year one. This supports effective budget monitoring and compliance with funder expectations.
Some of the scientists who serve on our grant-making committees also lead research projects that received funding from us in 2024/25. See note 30 on page 111 of our annual report and accounts.
