Multi-year grants of either £1,000 or £2,000 per year are available to cover costs such as travel, room hire, refreshment or administration costs.
There will also be one larger grant of £500,000 for a Centre of Excellence.

- UK registered charity
- UK charitable incorporated organisation (CIO)
- UK not-for-profit company
- UK community interest company (CIC)

The funding is available to organisations that provide music activities or working with people living with dementia as part of their existing delivery.
The closing date for applications is the 22nd December 2023.
