There are no specific restrictions on the use of this funding. Typically, awards of up to £2,000 will be made for one or more pump priming projects or pilot work towards further grant or fellowship applications or other research activities (but not simply travel expenses). We will consider spending up to £5,000 on any one such project but this would have to demonstrate added value.
Application and Selection Process
Applicants are asked to submit a research proposal including background, objectives, methods, outcomes, impact of grant, proposed budget and a timeline of research. Applicants are further asked to submit a full CV, a letter of support from the organisation in which the applicant is employed and an equality and diversity monitoring form.
