Small Grants Programme supported by The Linbury Trust

Theatres Trust's Small Grants Programme, supported by The Linbury Trust, funds small projects that make a big impact to a theatre's resilience, sustainability, accessibility or improving the diversity of audiences. This scheme provides grants of up to £7,500 for essential works to enable not-for-profit theatres across the UK to be viable and thrive in the future. Eligible projects include small capital works, the installation of key plant and machinery and works which make theatre buildings digital-ready. This scheme will prioritise improvements to buildings that protect theatre use and remove barriers to participation and attendance. Priority will also be given to projects where the total project costs are less than £250k or where the grant is the sole external funder and/or achievable within the total fund awarded. Please note that revenue and survey costs are ineligible. This fund is to support improvements and repairs to the building fabric, and the key plant and machinery or the purchase of key equipment (not software) to improve digital infrastructure.
