Essentials Fund

The Essentials Fund is a new innovative grant scheme created to support composers, music creators, and artists working with sound and music. Launched in 2024, the fund provides grants between £250 and £400 to help artists purchase essential tools and resources for their practice and seeks to address the growing demand for flexible, small-scale funding opportunities in the music industry. These grants empower artists to acquire specialist music equipment, attend workshops or courses, hire collaborators, purchase software, or cover costs like venue hire for events. By offering this flexible financial support, the fund plays a vital role in enabling music creators to advance their careers and bring their artistic visions to life.
