Amazon has launched the Regional Creatives Fund to open up new creative career opportunities across the UK. The fund aims to support charities that help underserved communities pursue careers in creative fields such as publishing, music, gaming, film, TV, fashion, advertising, and other related industries.
The fund is designed to encourage diversity and fresh perspectives in sectors where representation has historically been limited. By backing organizations already doing meaningful work, Amazon hopes to drive innovation and long-term impact in the creative industries.
Charities can apply for grants of up to £30,000, while consortiums of organizations can apply for funding of up to £100,000. To qualify, applicants must be registered charities operating within the creative sector and focused on upskilling, training, or preparing individuals—especially from underrepresented groups or underserved areas—for employment.
Only charities with operational or previously piloted projects are eligible. This is not a fund for new start-ups. Applicants must show measurable impact from their past work and present a clear, strategic plan for how the funding will enhance or scale their existing efforts.
Amazon is especially interested in building lasting partnerships with organizations that view this grant as the beginning of a deeper, long-term collaboration rather than a one-time opportunity.
