THE SPLIT INFINITIVE TRUST

Application deadline: none – applications may be made at any time.
Funder: The Split Infinitive Trust.

The Split Infinitive Trust provides small grants for projects that support live and performance arts, in general and in education. Preference is given to supporting students, especially performance arts courses, such as music, drama and dance, although consideration may be given to other arts areas. The Trust favours applications from Yorkshire and the surrounding area. However, this should not deter applications from other parts of the UK.

Not-for-profit organisation and individuals based and active in the UK may apply for a grant of between £250 and £750.

Grants are not available for:

o General running costs;
o Projects outside the UK; or
o Charities seeking funds for their own grant disbursement.

Applications, which are considered every three months, may be made at any time.

There are separate routes for individuals and organisation applying for a grant:

1. Individuals should download the application form from the Trust’s website, which should then be submitted with a brief covering letter and supporting evidence, such as an acceptance letter if applying for arts course funding.

2. Organisations are required to complete the information form available on the Trust’s website, which should be submitted with a project outline and a budget breakdown.

Further information is available on the Split Infinitive Trust website. Contact details for the Trust are:
