Manage your grant online with Flexi-Grant
Grantees and host institution administrators must use our online Grants Management System (Flexi-Grant) to complete post-award tasks.
We're changing our grant management system. There will be some changes to the way you apply for funding and manage your active grants from now until December 2020
Key tasks
These are the key tasks that must be completed online:
Accepting your award
Once the grant award letter has been sent out, both the lead applicant and the host institution administrator will need to accept it in the FlexiGrant portal. Once both the lead and host institution have accepted the award, the grant will be automatically moved to the awarded stage.
Receiving grant award letters
GALs will be issued over email and cannot be viewed through FlexiGrant.
Submitting financial reconciliation forms
Financial reconciliation forms are processed through FlexiGrant. These forms will be available in the system within a month after the award has ended.
Submitting scientific milestone reports
Scientific milestone reports (SMRs) are mostly requested over email from your Research Grants Manager. A few of our schemes use automated SMRs through FlexiGrant and if that is the case, you will receive an email from the system requesting you submit the report by a set deadline.
With the introduction of Researchfish, where Attributable Publications are required for a scientific milestone report, Grantees will download their relevant publications from Researchfish and upload this document in the scientific milestone report. You can read more about this in our Research Evaluation section.
Submitting final reports
Due to the implementation of Researchfish, CRUK will not be requiring the submission of a final report for the majority of our funding schemes. There are some exceptions to this and existing grantees will be notified about how this will affect them, with specific reporting requirements outlined in Grant Award Letters moving forward.
Troubleshooting
I can't log in
- If you think you already have an account but don't have details, use the 'forgotten password' function to get your password emailed to you.
- If your email is not recognised, or you have never applied to us before, register yourself as a new user.
- Before registering, please ensure that you do not already have an account registered under a different email address. This helps to prevent duplicate accounts.
- If your account gets locked, contact the grants helpline team at grants.helpline@cancer.org.uk.
I need to change my password
Once you have logged into FlexiGrant, you will need to navigate to ‘My Account’, and then select the 'change password' button. Click on this and follow the instructions.

Please contact the grants helpline at grants.helpline@cancer.org.uk.
I need to update my personal details
Once you have logged into FlexiGrant, navigate to the ‘My Account’ section. Click ‘my contact details' and follow the instructions. Click ‘Save’ to save changes. Please note that to change your name or email address you will need to contact grants.helpline@cancer.org.uk.
The form will not submit
Under the ‘Application’ tab, check that all sections of the application form are marked as ’complete’ in the application tab. Under the ‘Participants’ tab, check that all participants have completed their contribution. You will not be able to submit your application until all participants have a 'Completed' status. Participants get a 'Completed' status by clicking the 'Finish Contribution' button found on their application summary page.
If you are still having problems please contact the team at grants.helpline@cancer.org.uk.
