Projects must operate within the following creative industries: Digital and physical publishing, such as books and podcasts; Film, TV and Performance;Music; Advertising; Fashion; or Gaming.While this fund provides short-term financial support, they are especially keen to build long-term relationships with charity partners.

Funds can also be used for equipment, software, and wages, provided they meaningfully contribute to the project.
