We’ll focus particularly on applications to the Under £30k strand, with advice on projects that involve research and development (R&D) and short performance runs at the early stages of developing work.Please note: the NLPG application form itself has not changed. This session is specifically designed to support first-time applicants in understanding the process and preparing their proposals.
