This is a regular Friday website feature in which we list national grant programmes with an application deadline over the next couple of weeks.
As there’s relatively few deadlines next week and during Christmas week, but quite a lot at the end of December and start of January, today’s listing covers a 3-week period from Monday 16th December to Sunday 5th January 2025.
If you click on the title of each grant scheme, it should take you directly to the grant programme in question. All funders and grant programmes included have featured in the daily grants bulletin we send out at 8.30 each weekday morning. A free 2-week trial is available for anyone who would like to try out the daily bulletin. Simply email GRIN at info@grin.coop with ‘Free 2-week trial’ as the subject heading and you’ll receive the bulletin the following morning.
