Jointly funded by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport and Arts Council England, the programme helps strengthen the sustainability of the grassroots music sector.

Funding currently supports:

• Grassroots music venues

Eligible projects can help artists, bands and music industry professionals build sustainable careers, develop new audiences and strengthen the grassroots music ecosystem.
