funding
Our funding is diverse, but our focus is singular: to support people in realising their potential whilst developing new paths for the future. We work across a rich tapestry of sectors, with a culture of enquiry and innovation that drives positive change.
Collaboration is key to the way we operate. We work with selected partners, funding opportunities for new thinking within their organisations, and to unlock positive long lasting impact in their communities and across larger organisational frameworks.
For information on our current funding please see our news and visit our socials.
We can only provide support through our existing awards programmes.
We will not be able to respond to any unsolicited applications for funding.
Awards
The charity’s rich network of awards and initiatives span over forty years.
Past awards have ranged from professional development awards and focused travel opportunities to specialist mentoring and education initiatives, bursaries for design students, and year-long fellowships for mid-career curators.
Our award winners have travelled the length andbreadth of the globe – teaching, building, studying, providing medical aid and fostering new connections around the world.
Initiatives
Alongside these awards we have also developed our own initiatives driving forward our ambition to transform people and their communities.
