Rural communities

In 2019, we launched a three-year programme of Fellowships focused on Rural Communities. Applications for this programme are now closed and our final cohort of Fellows will be awarded in June 2023.

This programme sought applications that explore multidisciplinary approaches from around the world for strengthening UK rural life in all its aspects. More information is below.

These approaches might aim, for example, to invigorate transport networks, reimagine housing, employment and enterprise, or improve access to education, culture and healthcare.

Fellows in this programme form part of a dedicated community specialising in this area, with tailored opportunities for support and networking in this field.

This programme is offered in partnership with The Prince’s Countryside Fund.

Fellows awarded in previous years have carried out projects in this area. See some examples of their impact stories here.

We recognise our responsibility to the environment through our Fellowship programme and our operations. Our progress on this is explained here.
