The Radcliffe Trust (Music, Heritage, Crafts)
Founded over 300 years ago, The Radcliffe Trust offers grants to registered charities, CICs and other not-for-profit organisations based in the UK. Grants are given with the aim of promoting traditional craft, heritage, and classical music in the UK by supporting people to access training, education and skill development.
The Radcliffe Trust has two grant making programmes:
- Under their Music Scheme, The Radcliffe Trust supports projects that involve classical music performance, training, and education for children and adults with special needs, youth orchestras, and projects at secondary and higher levels.
- Under their Heritage & Crafts Scheme, the Trust will support projects that involve craft and conservation projects and training, practical projects, capacity building projects, and special needs projects focusing on the benefit of skills developments.
In both schemes, grants will only be given for specific project costs, but the Trust will accept ‘proportional and limited’ cost of overheads and full cost recovery to be included in budgets.
Music grants are in the region of £2,500 – £5,000 and Heritage and Crafts grants are generally in the region of £2,500-£7,500
The deadline for the latest funding round is 31st July 2026
