Bursaries

Funding Available

Up to £500 per organisation per year

Dates

Rolling - applications must be made three weeks before proposed activity

Bursaries support Film Hub Scotland members to attend training courses, conferences, screenings and more.

As a member of Film Hub Scotland, you can apply for a Bursary. This Bursary can support you to attend training and events that support your personal development, and/or benefit your organisation.

You can apply for between £50 – £500 in each Bursary application. You may apply for multiple bursaries throughout the year, however this is capped at £500 per organisation.

What can a Bursary cover?

You can apply for a Bursary to attend training courses, conferences, screenings, or visiting other organisations for ‘go and see’ trips. This can also include online training and attendance of virtual festivals.
A bursary can cover fees, travel and accommodation costs.
We will prioritise support for new Bursary applicants, and for Bursary recipients who apply to participate in a new activity.

What is not covered?

We are unlikely to support you to take part in the same activity more than once, or more than one person per organisation to participate in a training opportunity. However, if you can make a strong case for support in these circumstances, we will consider your application.

How do I access a Bursary?

Bursaries are typically provided to remunerate expenses instead of covering them upfront. Bursaries are provided after the activity once you have submitted a Bursary Feedback Form, Expenditure Claim Form and relevant receipts.

In rare and exceptional circumstances, we will consider providing the bursary in two instalments (60% and 40%).

How to apply

Applications can be made on a rolling basis.

You must apply three weeks before your activity starts to allow enough time for your application to be assessed. Bursaries cannot be granted for activity that has already started.
