The David Canter Memorial Fund offers awards to give financial assistance to those working in the crafts. The fund is open to those who have finished their formal training and are working full-time or part-time as a maker in the UK but need money for specific projects, eg setting up a workshop, buying equipment, educational work or for research and travel. Grants are not available to students, nor for those working in the field of fine arts.

Awards, which usually range between £500 and £1,000, are made every other year, each time focusing on a specific craft discipline.  For 2012 this will be CERAMICS and the submission deadline is 21st September 2012.
