British Science Festival Community Grants Programme

Deadline: Monday 28 July 2025 at 5 PM.

This programme will provide grants of up to £1000 to community groups/organisations based in the Liverpool City region that work directly with audiences who are traditionally underrepresented and currently not engaged in science activity.

Events can take place anytime from August through to November.

To be eligible for a grant, you must represent or have existing connections to a community-based group or organisation that works directly with audiences who are traditionally underrepresented and currently not engaged in science activity. For this scheme, groups that are underrepresented in science include:

  • People living in communities which face deprivation
  • People from minoritised ethnic backgrounds
  • People in faith/religious communities
  • Disabled people, including neurodivergent people
  • LGBTQI+ people, including diversity in sexual orientation and gender identity
  • Women (if the project is linked to physics or IT in particular)
  • People uninterested in science
  • People who are interested in science but do not engage in science
