External Funding

If you are looking for financial help to cover course costs, then the organisations below may be able to help*:

A ScreenSkills Bursary is a cash grant to remove the obstacles to getting into the screen industries or progressing your career once you’re in. It can be used towards training and should cover up to 80% of the course fees.

The Sir Horace Ové Grant has been created to help Black and Global Majority people working behind the scenes in film, TV, and cinema to access opportunity and navigate barriers to career progression. Grants of up to £500 are available which can cover courses supporting your professional development.

Northern Ireland Screen Skills Fund The Skills Fund is a grant offered to individuals working in the Northern Ireland screen sector and is designed to support financially those participating in training or development courses. It can cover up to 75% of the course fees.

ReAct+ offers tailored support to those trying to re-enter the labour market in Wales after being made redundant by removing barriers and providing grant support for vocational training, travel costs and care (including childcare) related to training.

*Please note that we are happy to provide any evidence or material required by the funder. However as the payment arrangement is between yourself and the funder, attendees must pay for a ticket first either via Ticket Tailor or invoice and will then claim for the cost via the company providing the bursary. I’m afraid we cannot accept payment from individuals after the course/event has taken place.
