This fund is open to local not-for-profit groups across the UK for performing arts projects or the conservation of historical objects.
There are two funding schemes to the Trust:
Performing Arts Grants: usually around £4,000, but can be larger
The Trust’s priorities for music, theatre and dance are:
- The development, production and/or performance of new works in music, theatre, dance and performance across all genres.
- To support artists’ professional development through programmes that address a clear need or gap in development. These programmes can be aimed at early or mid-career artists but they need to reflect current context and practices.
Conservation grants: ranging around £2,000 – £5,000, but occasionally can be larger.
- The Trust supports the conservation of historic objects, collections and features of buildings and designed landscapes. Regarding churches, grants can support conservation of items such as monuments, wall paintings, stained glass and historic furniture and fittings.
- Priority will be given to smaller projects or specific elements of projects, where funding can have the greatest impact.
