Mini Grants for Folk Dance
Bringing Folk Dance to a Wider Audience
Applications are now closed.
Applicants will be informed of the outcome of their application by Thursday 24 October 2024.
We are delighted to again offer five mini grants to support folk dance activity.
We are seeking proposals from individuals and groups / organisations who need support for one of the following:
- to embark on a new folk dance project (or who have recently started a folk dance project within the last 6 months)
- to develop something new within an existing dance activity (for example to make it more accessible to a wider range of participants)
Five grants of £500 will be offered to help cover the costs of developing and running these events or projects.
We are seeking to support activity which will increase access to folk dance for people with diverse backgrounds and needs, in relation to one or more of the following characteristics: age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, sexual orientation, and social or economic status.
