To be eligible, organisations must:

Up to ten winners will receive £30,000 plus the overall winner will receive an extra £10,000. Up to 10 runners-up will receive £3,000. The winners do not need to present a new project, meaning that they can decide how to spend the award money.
Award winners will also receive free training valued at £4,000. Organisations will also have a film made, receive help with press and publicity and be given a set of promotional materials.
The closing date for applications to the GSK IMPACT Awards 2014 is 20 September 2013.
