Grants are available for organisations and projects working in arts, culture and heritage. 

The 2022 round of funding from Andrew Lloyd Webber Foundation is open for Stage 1 applications.

The Foundation supports the promotion of the arts, culture and heritage for the public benefit.

It seeks to support registered charities, not-for-profit groups and constituted community groups with grants of up to £25,000 per year for 3 years.

Priority will be given to organisations that:  

• increase diversity in the arts and heritage by breaking down social, economic and geographical barriers, encouraging engagement and providing high quality training to young people aged under 25, eg. youth theatres, youth orchestras, side-by-side music initiatives, music therapy groups, music in prisons, heritage skill training.

• provide specialist training and work-place experience and apprenticeships for emerging artists and newly graduated professionals, eg. theatre director schemes, actor mentoring and training, heritage building craft apprentices and training schemes, young composer schemes, writers’ workshops.

• unlock access to high quality arts and heritage education and training for a significant number of people

The closing date for Stage 1 applications is midnight on 28 February 2022 but you are encouraged to apply as soon as possible.

The deadline for Stage 2 applications will be 31 March 2022 and funding decisions will be made in May 2022.
