New call for grant applications

This autumn, the UPP Foundation will be awarding a small number of grants to outstanding projects which tackle key issues within our strategic themes.

The UPP Foundation funds universities and charities to develop innovative pilot schemes. We particularly look to fund new ideas or a new approach to an existing idea.

We partner with organisations which value collaboration – and all successful applications will demonstrate the potential impact of the project, how the UPP Foundation can add value and the project’s long-term sustainability once our funding comes to an end.

In this round, we have a maximum cap of £25,000 for any individual grant.

The deadline for applications is 18 October 2019

Further details on how to apply, including the eligibility criteria and application form, can be found on our grants page
