End-of-grant reporting

The type of report you fill in depends on what grant you have. If your grant isn't listed here, we'll contact you directly to let you know if you need to submit an end-of-grant report.

Your organisation will also need to complete a final expenditure report to receive the final payment on the grant.

• University Awards in Humanities and Social Science
• Human Heredity and Health in Africa Awards

What happens next?

Grantholders whose grants end between 1 October 2024 and 30 September 2025 must send us their report during Researchfish's next submission period.

This runs from 3 February 2025 to 13 March 2025, 17:00 (GMT). 

If this applies to you, we will email you to ask you to submit an end of grant report.

You can start compiling your report on Researchfish as soon as you receive your invitation email. However, you can only submit the report during the submission period.

If you miss the deadline, we won't accept any new grant applications from you until you submit your report.

Researchfish post-award reporting

We will ask you for an update of your Researchfish report, two and five years after you first submit it. You need to send us your update during the annual February to March submission period.

The update:

• allows you to report any further research outputs from your grant
• helps us to improve our data about the research we fund

If you do not send us an update, we will not accept any new grant applications from you until you submit your report.

We will contact you soon after the end date of your grant to request you complete an end-of-grant report form. 

You must send us your report within three months of your grant end date. We won't accept any new grant applications from you until you submit your report.

Use the relevant form for your grant.
