Monthly Grants

Every month, we give away a number of grants worth up to £2,000 each to PhD students and PostDocs who need support for elements of research life that aren’t typically funded elsewhere, such as travel expenses and childcare. Since 2021 we have helped more than 100 students in their studies.
