Application guidance for the next round of Regular Funding, 2018-21 is now available.
Regular Funding is one of Creative Scotland’s three routes to funding for arts, screen and creative organisations. Regularly Funded Organisations (RFOs) are a network of organisations across Scotland which, individually and collectively, form an important part of Scotland’s cultural sector, making a significant contribution to society: creatively, socially and economically.
While we do not yet know what budget will be available to us for the next round of Regular Funding 2018-21, we are opening the process to enable plenty of time for application, assessment and decision making.
As such, we will open for receipt of applications from 16 January 2017 and the closing date will be 3 April 2017.
We anticipate announcing the decisions on the next round of Regularly Funded Organisations in Autumn 2017, this will depend on the timing of the budget announcement from the Scottish Government.
Our Enquiries service is available to answer any queries on Regular Funding, or any other aspect of the support we provide. We recommend that any organisation thinking of applying for Regular Funding should read the guidance fully before contacting us. We have also published Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on our website, and will update these on an ongoing basis, shaped by the nature of the enquiries we receive.
We have also organised a series of Regular Funding information sessions across Scotland from December 2016 to January 2017 for interested applicants.
Further communications regarding Regular Funding will be made at appropriate points over the coming months.
