The Radcliffe Trust supports the development and practice of the skills, knowledge and experience that underpin the UK’s heritage and crafts sector. This includes support for emerging craftspeople of high quality, craft and conservation projects and training, projects demonstrating creative outcomes by designer-makers, projects with potential for capacity building within the sector, and some special needs projects focusing on the therapeutic benefits of skills development.
The Trustees will consider making occasional grants in other areas of cultural creativity related to their concerns for heritage and crafts, including theatre, performance, and literature, especially where projects can be shown to contribute to the promotion and development of high-level skills among early career practitioners and disadvantaged groups.
- The Radcliffe Trust accepts applications from CICs, CIOs and other not-for-profit organisations.
- Heritage & Crafts grants are generally in the region of £2,500–£7,500.
- Closes on the 31st July for applications to both the Music and Heritage & Crafts schemes for consideration in December. Please note any projects that start prior to the 1st January (following the trustees meeting) will not be considered, save in exceptional circumstances.
