Funding Directory
The list has been compiled in good faith with information taken from web sites, documentation and through discussions with many funders. It is, as far as possible, correct but some of the entries experience high demands and funding can run out, or deadlines may change, so it is always a good idea to contact the trusts or charities involved before submitting your application.
