Who can apply? Projects taking place in or out of school, college or university, or in community settings in the UK will be considered.
Grant amount: This is a highly competitive fund with only one in nine applications being successful last year.
Grants of between £500 and £3,000 are available. The average grant is around £2,000.
Grants will be made on a one-off basis. Award of a grant in one year does not carry any probability of repeat funding the following year.
