Documentation grants
The Documentation grants provide funding to document material knowledge systems that are under threat and in danger of disappearing. This includes knowledge systems associated with the making, use, repair and re-purposing of material objects, spaces, architecture, performances and environments. In order to qualify for these grants, these knowledge systems must still be actively pursued or at least practised within the living memory of the knowledge holders.

Small Grant: Up to 12 months with a maximum award of £20,000.
