These notes are for journalists, grantees and partners writing about our work. They set out naming conventions, what we will confirm, and how to reach us.
Key points
- The correct name is Exishmum Foundation, at first and subsequent mention.
- We do not confirm or discuss individual applications.
- Grantees are free to announce their own funding.
- Written enquiries reach the right person fastest.
Naming and description
Write Exishmum Foundation in full at first mention; 'the Foundation' is acceptable afterwards. Please do not abbreviate the name to an acronym, and please describe us only in terms we publish ourselves.
What we can confirm
We can confirm published funding programmes, their published criteria and deadlines, and information already on this website. We do not confirm whether a named organization or individual has applied, nor discuss decisions, reviewers or scores.
Grantee announcements
Grantees may announce their own award whenever they wish. If you would like a quotation or want to check how we should be described, write to us before publication and we will respond quickly.
Contacting us
Media enquiries should go to admin@exishmumfoundation.com with your outlet, question and deadline. We aim to respond to deadline-bound enquiries the same working day.
