The GSK Ireland IMPACT Awards 2017 are open for applications. There are five grants of €10,000 and five of €2,000 available.
The awards are designed to recognise and reward community-based charities doing work to improve people’s health and wellbeing in Ireland. The awards are open to registered charities that are at least three years old, work in a health-related field in Ireland and with a total annual income between €20,000 and €1,000,000.
The name ‘IMPACT’ derives from the criteria that winners must demonstrate in their application – Innovation, Management,  Partnership, Achievement,  Community focus and Targeting need.
