Royal College of Pathologists Public Engagement Innovation Grants, deadline 1 June 2021

The Public Engagement Innovation Grant Scheme provides financial support for the delivery of pathology-related activities and events in the UK. Grants of up to £1,000 are available for individuals or organisations who wish to develop pathology-related public engagement activities or events.

The Innovation Grant Scheme aims to:

• inspire innovative and creative pathology related public engagement projects and activities 
• raise public awareness of, and engagement with, pathology, in particular with those who would not normally engage with the topic 
• develop the science communication skills of pathologists and laboratory scientists 
• stimulate discussion about pathology between pathologists and the public in order to motivate, inspire and enthuse both parties about the value of pathology and its role in prevention, diagnosis and treatment.

To be eligible, proposed events and activities should:

• include the involvement of pathologists and/or laboratory scientists as a key part of the activity (although to apply, you do not have to be a College member yourself).
• be pathology-based and explore underlying concepts and issues, rather than just providing information.

Deadline for applications is 1 June 2021

All activities/projects must be completed by 1 July 2022. 

The website has information about previously funded projects - excellent to look at for inspiration and get a feel for what the College are looking for.
