Funding to Help Develop Novel Technical Ideas (UK)

Grants of between £250 and £3,000 are available to individuals and small groups or organisations based in the UK who have a novel technical idea which they want to try.

Through the “I’ve Got an Idea” Fund, the Prospectory will provide funding to cover the costs of making and/or testing a novel technical idea, that would deliver a social or environmental benefit, and is intriguing, inventive and has an element of fun.

The first award made in 2020 enabled a community in Wales to build a free standing, mobile, gravity fed, off-grid, handwashing station to enable them to re-open their outdoor site in a Covid-safe manner.

Applications can be made at any time until all the funds have been exhausted.
