Grants of up to £5,000 Available to Support Women Songwriters and Composers (UK)

The PRS for Music Foundation's Women Make Music scheme is open for applications from female, trans, and non-binary songwriters and composers of all genres and backgrounds at various stages of their careers.

The scheme aims to break down assumptions and stereotypes about women in music, raise awareness of the gender gap in the industry, raise the profile of female music creators in the UK, and encourage women who may not have otherwise applied for PRS for Music Foundation funding to do so.

Grants of up to £5,000 are available to support:

  • Creation of new music
  • Music Creator fee (to cover your time and work)
  • Touring and live performances featuring new UK music
  • Recording and release
  • Creative residency costs
  • Fees to creative collaborators
  • Promotion and marketing (ONLY when there is also an element of creation and/or performance included in the funding bid)

The deadline to apply is 6pm on the 11th March 2024.

Please note that the PRS for Music Foundation no longer supports organisations through the Women Make Music scheme.
