I am currently managing a project called Umbro Industries, which is a bursary scheme providing financial support for people who are involved in creative projects in the Greater Manchester area – up to £10,000 is available per quarter.
The funding can be for anything from a new documentary or fashion label to a photography or art project. I thought this could be of interest to yourself or your creative networks. We are always looking for fresh and exciting project to work with in Greater Manchester!
Applications can be made at http://www.umbroindustries.com, where ideas are appraised and the finalists pitch their ideas to a panel of influential members. You can also see past ideas and those who were successful in the past at gaining the funding. The closing date being Friday 30th July.
I have plenty of flyers and posters available to promote this scheme so if you would like some sending out please drop me an email with your postal address.
If you have any questions please contact harriettaggart@eartotheground.org who is managing the project and she will answer any queries. I hope this can help you out in some way!
