This funding opportunity supports UK performing arts organisations in improving their training and education facilities. Grants typically fund building or refurbishment projects and occasionally specialist equipment purchases. Eligible organisations must be registered charities or local authorities focused on professional performance and education. Funding rounds occur twice yearly with grants ranging from £15,000 to £150,000, requiring match funding for projects over £50,000. The application process is two-stage, emphasizing strategic facility improvements and sector significance.
Applicants must be UK-based registered or exempt charities (or equivalent) or local authorities focused on professional performing arts with significant education work. Community and multi-arts centres are unlikely to be eligible.
