If your grant is going to be administered by an organisation, they will accept your grant for you.

If your grant won't be administered by an organisation, or your organisation doesn't have an approver – someone who can submit accept Wellcome grants, for example, research office staff – you will need to accept the grant yourself through your organisation account.
