Grants of up to £500 are also available for groups who need accessibility support to apply for this programme. The grant will help fund the cost of support, such as a scribe or BSL interpreter.
A live webinar and Q&A to talk through the programme will be held on 19 November 2024 (10:30 to 12:00). Registration is required and can be done on the Foundation's website.
