Deadline: Ongoing
The Ragdoll Foundation has launched a call for applications for its Small Grants Programme 2020 to support smaller or newer organisations to develop one-off projects, pilot projects, or research and development to inform a new project or programme.
For newer or smaller organisations – this programme is not aimed at arts organisations that receive core support from one of the UK arts councils. The Ragdoll Foundation is dedicated to supporting the creation, appreciation and awareness of imaginative and innovative work that reflects the world from a child’s point of view.
Funding Information
- Maximum grant available £1,500 for projects costing up to £2,000
- Up to 20 Small Grants awarded per year
- Short duration – up to 6 months
The Ragdoll Foundation does not fund:
- Individuals, or proposals that only benefit one individual
- Organisations that do not have a formal constitution or governing document
- Organisations or activities that are for-profit
- Proposals from organisations based outside of the UK

Eligibility Criteria
- The Ragdoll Foundation accepts applications from not-for-profit organisations based in the UK. They will only fund work that is legally charitable.
