Grant Applicant - applied in 2019
They seem to apply a bog standard approach to all of their grant programmes - without acknowledging the different grants will require different approaches, different monitoring requirements and different methods of engagement. Be aware that because their programmes are oversubscribed, it might take a while for them to get back to you, so be patient.

I think they are changing and building better habits, such as understanding what it is like to be on the other side of the coin having to jump through multiple and sometimes pointless hoops.
Ensure that every programme is unique to what you're trying to build - from the criteria, to the application process, to the monitoring. Try to engage with applicants and grantees on a personal level - and help us to succeeed.
They put a lot of money into the charity sector and have sustained many a great programme or service to vulnerable people throughout the years.

Think in the long term - outcomes that will outlive the grant and which are as sustainable as possible. Decision to fund can take longer than anticipated so plan accordingly.

Supportive, interested, understands the issues we seek to address and the methodologies we use.
Ask me again in a year! So far, it's been a very positive experience.
Evaluation of the work is non arduous, they focus on achieving aims and improving service rather than tickboxing which is refreshing.
Responding to questions, showing interest in and supporting the work.
