The fifth round of
the Clore Poetry and Literature Awards is now open to applications from
schools, community groups, and not for profit organisations to help provide
poetry and literature initiatives for children and young people across the UK
over a five year period (2011 - 2015).
The overall objective
of the Programme is to provide young people under the age of nineteen with the
opportunity to experience poetry, literature, and creative writing both inside
and outside of school, in compelling and exciting forms.
The foundation is particularly
keen to see projects that include:
- A celebratory/community
component to projects and innovative approaches to the
performance/presentation of writing and literature.
- The impact of funded
projects and how great ideas can be embedded within the applicants'
practice for the future (documenting the process involved is therefore
important).
- The potential for projects
to serve as models of good practice for others, including the planning and
evaluation processes which show intended outcomes and impact.
- Images and music, but the
written or spoken word must be central to the project.
Grants range from
£1,000 to £10,000 and the total project costs must not exceed £20,000.
Submissions for the
fifth round of funding should be received no later than 5pm on Wednesday 1 May
2013.
