This form is to support you in creating your own This Is Us community (TIUC) event, activity or meet-up by and for care experienced and estranged students. This is for events that are bigger than your local students' union/HE institution.

Before filling it in, you need to read the 'Create your own This Is Us community (TIUC) fun' document, as this explains how we can help you.

You must complete this form at least 2 weeks before you intend to hold your event so the Unite Foundation has time to look at your form and help get together the resources you request. Remember, we cannot provide funding for 'Local' events.

We have two rules as a community:

Events may be in-person or virtual, but they must open to both care experienced and estranged students.
If you run an event, you need to share that it is going on in the This Is Us community platform so people know how they can get involved.

For more info about the community: This is our community = thisisusatuni.org

Let Ira know the details about your event so they can help you plan and resource it.

Is your event...

Where do you plan to hold it? (online, exact location if known or general area e.g. In Manchester or at Dundee DUSA)

When do you plan to hold it? (approx. or set date)

How many people are you holding the event for (approx.)?

What is your event and what support are you looking for from the Unite Foundation? (This is where you write out your full idea for the meetup, including approx. how much funding you are requesting. See guidance document appendix for examples.)

Ira will be in touch by email soon to help you bring your idea to life. We can't promise we can fund everything (and trips to Mars aren't quite in the budget yet) but it is always worth asking. Any questions in the meantime, get in touch with Ira.

Your details will be stored for the purpose of helping you run an event/meetup in the This Is Us community and related This Is Us opportunities. It will not be passed on to any third parties. Read more about our Privacy Policy here.
