Application (in Microsoft Word format for completing online)
Application (in Adobe PDF format for completing by hand)

Make sure you read the guidelines before completing an application form.

We very much prefer that you complete applications in Microsoft Word format and return to us by email. This makes the task of processing them much, much easier. If this is not possible, however, you can request a form to be posted to you or print out the downloaded form.

We encourage you to contact us before completing your application. Contact details are at the bottom of this page.

Information on successful applications to the LHGP are available on the Recipients page.
