With the success of our first round of awards in 2024, we have decided to make this award a regular feature of the Williamson Trust’s programming.

‘Healthy Planet, Healthy People’: Community-led Awards are designed to support community-led ​​research. The awards are available to cover eligible costs arising from a defined research project. Funding will be provided to support new and existing research projects that promote the health of individuals through fostering healthy environments and communities, and enabling access to healthy foods.

The Williamson Trust and RSE are looking to award ten demonstrator pilot-scale projects led by community-based individuals or organisations, who would each receive an award amount of up to £5,000 to conduct a research project for up to 12 months.
