Lloyd’s Register Foundation Small Grants scheme – for grants up to £10,000 GBP for organisations.
The ethos of the Lloyd’s Register Foundation small grants scheme is “a little can go a long way”. Through this scheme the Foundation is making funds available to projects which can:
- Initiate, build, or consolidate partnerships with organisations in the relevant sectors.
- Test out ideas through pilot studies, proof of concept projects or activities targeting the heritage, maritime and public sectors.
We will only consider applications related to the charitable mission of Lloyd’s Register Foundation.
- Projects or activities should demonstrate the potential to lead to future collaborations, clear knowledge exchange, or create/accelerate impact.
- We are additionally interested in receiving applications related to our Heritage and Education Centre.
- Please note grants are not normally awarded consecutively and can be no more than 12 months long.
We will not consider applications for:
- Work which is not within the Foundation’s mission
- For individuals, where activities only directly benefit the applicant
- Conservation of historic vessels
- Projects focused solely on naval history
- Capital works
- School, college or university fees
- Retrospective funding
- Lobbying and campaigning
- Business / first-class travel
- Core equipment, however specialist equipment would be considered on a case by case basis.
- Funding for a component of an already-funded project (such as journal publication costs, additional travel, sub-projects)
The deadline for applications is Monday 25th November 2024.
Applications must be received no later than 23.59 hours on the deadline.
If you are successful, when your activity is finished, you will be required to submit a report telling us how you have spent the grant and what difference it has made.
We will not enter into any dialogue with applicants regarding their application, either before you submit or if your application has not been successful.
The next small grants round will open Monday 24th February 2025 and closes Monday 19th May 2025.
Please apply via the Lloyd’s Register Foundation flexigrant portal.
