Direct activity and production costs, including venue costs, equipment and materials
Relevant public engagement training and development for you and any staff employed on your grant
Travel costs
Evaluation, including formative/development costs
Administration costs that are not already covered by other funding

Contingency costs, as long as these are reasonable and you can justify them
VAT on fees where the VAT can't be reclaimed.


OTHER KEY DATES

Funding will end at the same time as your main Wellcome grant.


HOST COUNTRIES

United Kingdom   Ireland


Note that while some organisers may accept applications from all around the world, you may still be required to travel to the host country in order to take part in the later stages of a competition for instance, or you may be required to live there for a period of time to take part in a funded programme (e.g. scholarship, incubator, accelerator).

Multiple host countries may mean that no travel is required.
