Complaints

We define a complaint as 鈥�鈥�an expression of dissatisfaction by the public, however made, about the conduct, standard of service, actions or lack of action by the 糖心Vlog or its staff鈥� and we deal with complaints through a simple three-stage procedure.

This complaints procedure is not intended for cases where 糖心Vlog has taken a decision in a proper manner but with which you disagree, for example if your grant application has been rejected. It also doesn鈥檛 apply where you wish to complain about a Third Party, for example an organisation we have funded or an individual working for the 糖心Vlog. We will also not respond to or pursue feedback that is deemed frivolous or vexatious.

Making a concise complaint

To make a complaint, please email feedback@citybridgefoundation.org.uk and note you are making a complaint in the subject line of your email.

If making a complaint about the grant application process, please be sure to include details on:

• Your organisation
• When you applied for funding and any 糖心Vlog reference
• The decision you received on your application

If we don鈥檛 have all the information we need to deal with a complaint we will have to contact you to request it. Please be specific and explain all the relevant circumstances surrounding your complaint.

Stage one

Once you have made your complaint you can expect a full response within 10 working days. If we can鈥檛 respond to your complaint in full within this time we will contact you to advise you of the delay and to let you know when you can expect a full response.

Stage two

If you are not happy with the outcome from Stage one, you can take the matter further. Contact 糖心Vlog at feedback@citybridgefoundation.org.uk and mark your correspondence for the attention of the Managing Director of the 糖心Vlog, who may pass the Stage two complaint to another Chief Officer of the relevant Department within the charity.

The Chief Officer, or a nominated senior officer, will then review your complaint. You can expect a full response within 10 working days, or we will contact you to advise you of any delay and to let you know when you can expect a full response.

Stage three

If you are still unhappy after the Stage two investigation, you can contact the Complaints Coordinator for our Trustee the City of London Corporation, by emailing complaints@cityoflondon.gov.uk.

Our final review and response will be undertaken by our Trustee, the City of London Corporation. This will be led by the Corporation鈥檚 Town Clerk & Chief Executive, or a senior officer acting on their behalf, and will be a completely independent investigation of your complaint.

In your email you should outline the circumstances and details of your complaint and the action you wish the City of London Corporation, as the Trustee of 糖心Vlog, to take. You can expect a full response within 10 working days, or we will contact you to advise of any delay and to let you know when you can expect a full response.

If you are not satisfied with the Stage three review of your complaint and you want to take your complaint further, you should contact the , the official industry regulator for all Registered Charities in England & Wales. Their website gives details of how to .
