Section 3: About the bursary

We'd like to know more about the total cost of your event/course/activity, and how the Bursary will contribute towards this. Leave areas that do not apply blank. Please include exact costs and not estimates.
We are committed to minimising the negative environmental impact of the work we support and ask all proposals to contribute to this aim. We encourage members to travel via train and avoid air travel where possible. Please provide details of the planned mode(s) of transport and cost of travel (£)
How will you be paying for any other expenses?*
All activity we support needs to outline how it will contribute to the Film Audience Network priorities outlined in BFI's National Lottery strategy (available at: bit.ly/BFIStrategy). These priorities are: 1) Engaging with children and young people; 2) Accessing a wider choice of film; 3) Tackling social, economic and geographic barriers & 4) Engaging with heritage collections that reflect the diversity of the UK. Could you tell us a little bit about how attending this event benefit you, your organisation and the wider Film Hub Scotland network?
Because of limited funds, a special case has to be made for international based activity. If you are seeking bursary support for this type of activity, please provide additional information including: why equivalent activity in the UK does not meet your needs, and a summary of the specific activity will you undertake as a direct result of your attendance.
