Seed Awards are for projects that are in their early stages, and in need of a financial boost to help them develop into a sustainable project with the potential to deliver measurable social impact. The £2,000 grant is intended to provide applicants with an opportunity to trial or test a new or innovative idea for positive social change, with a view to evaluating their project and actively collecting evidence of proof of concept.
Scaling Awards help projects that have clearly demonstrated their proof of concept to scale and grow, moving them on to the next level. The £10,000 grant is intended to be the next step in helping projects truly catalyse, become sustainable and/or replicate. Applicants should aim to increase their positive social impact and to have plans in place to measure impact and evaluate the work of the project. We prioritise applications where RSA funding is integral to the aim of the application.
