Following consultation with industry representatives, the £3m Future Innovation Fund pilot programme has been established by the Metro Mayor to support Liverpool City Region’s (LCR) small and medium sized enterprise (SME) community. The fund aims to incentivise SMEs to innovate, adapt and diversify in response to the challenges and opportunities presented by the pandemic and its associated impacts on the economy and society.
Wirral Borough Council’s Lifelong and Family Learning Service has been allocated funding from the Liverpool City Region for revenue projects for Neighbourhood Learning, for which the Council would like to contract providers to design and deliver innovative adult learning courses for the academic year 2020 – 2021.
The Open Fund for Organisations supports new music projects led by promoters, talent development organisations, venues, curators and large performance groups*.
Projects must involve the creation, performance and promotion of new music and enable songwriters, composers, or solo artists, bands, producers and performers of all backgrounds to develop creatively and professionally
Support is available to any organisation whose project fits with all three funding priorities:
To support the creation, performance and promotion of outstanding new music in any genre
We are particularly interested in the quality of the music
To enable the UK’s most talented music creators to realise their potential
We are interested in how your project will develop the songwriters and composers involved. We are committed to supporting UK based songwriters and composers of all backgrounds
To inspire audiences
You will be asked to outline who you are reaching and how. This includes audiences at a local, regional, national or international level
Through The Open Fund, we support high quality new music projects which have tangible musical outcomes and a clearly defined start and end date.
