Our Trustees welcome applications throughout the year for funding for rehabilitation or disability research taking place in the United Kingdom. To read the Remedi Research Strategy please click for Research Strategy   Although basic scientific research would not be discouraged, the Trustees main priority is to look at projects which identifiably would have clinical benefit for the relief of disability.

The Scientific Advisory Committee will be meeting to review applications that have passed external peer review on the 7th of May and 20th November, 2008..

PLEASE NOTE THAT AN APPLICATION CANNOT BE CONSIDERED BY OUR TRUSTEES, UNTIL IT HAS BEEN THROUGH STAGES 1 - 5 (as outlined below).
In some cases it can take up to 6 months to process an application.
