End-of-grant reporting
How to complete an end-of-grant report
Your end-of-grant report will be available on the Wellcome Funding platform once your grant end date has passed. This will be the case for all grants unless otherwise communicated.
Your organisation will also need to complete a final expenditure report to receive the final payment on the grant.

What happens next?
Grantholders whose grants end between 1 October 2025 and 30 September 2026 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. 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.
