Thanks to support from Art Fund, MDM is pleased to offer grants to fund Workforce Development and Individual Continuous Professional Development (CPD) opportunities. The aim of this grant scheme is to support the sector in the retention, training and ongoing development of the museum workforce.
Development grants are available for individuals or groups working in and with eligible Midlands museums (including museum volunteers and freelancers). Organisations in direct receipt of Arts Council National Portfolio Organisation (NPO) funding, or Nationally Funded Museums are not eligible to apply.
· Grants of up £750 are available for individuals
· Grants of up to £2,000 are available for organisations
The CPD Grant funding opened on 5 June 2024 and has a rolling deadline until 31 October 2024. Once all funding has been allocated, applications will close. This may be before the advertised end date of the grant scheme.
All activity must be completed by end of February 2025
