Research, advocacy and development fund

Our research, advocacy and development fund allows us to make strategic interventions in our areas of interest, where they may bring about systemic change, drive forward policy and practice, or strengthen the sector.

We support projects, ideas and organisations that do research, advocacy and sector development work in young women’s mental health and preservation and conservation of historic buildings and collections.

We aim to be more conversational rather than transactional in our approach. Normally we build partnerships and then invite applications for initiatives we are interested in supporting.

We have a small pot of funding set aside for this work. Whilst we are always happy to hear about projects and ideas, at the moment we are unlikely to support further research and advocacy work in the young women’s mental health field as we already have a couple of proposals under development.
