Satellite Meeting Funding
One benefit of being a member of the SEB is that you can apply for SEB funding to help with the organisation of satellite meetings; each of the SEB Sections is allocated £3000 per annum for this purpose.
Deadlines for Applications
Applications for satellite funding are considered at the SEB Section Meetings in April and November. Deadlines are as follows:
Applications for consideration at the April Meeting: 1st April each year
Applications for consideration at the October meeting: 1st October each year.
Applications can be made for the following financial years (year ending 31st August):
