The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is being felt across the breadth of society. We know that this is a deeply challenging time for the people who use our services, our staff, and for our research grant recipients.
We believe that everyone’s immediate focus should rightly be on their safety and well-being, that of their families, and those that they are responsible for.
The intention of this position paper is to inform research grant holders of our position with regards to maintenance of grants, and how we will support you, in what are fast-changing circumstances. This is a “live” document, and subject to change.
If you are a grant holder, and have concerns about the impact of COVID-19 on your research, please contact us.
