Leather Working Bursaries

Leather Working Bursaries

AIMS OF THE SCHEME
In 2024-25 we are supporting bursaries through the Heritage Craft programme to support individuals to start training in leather work or to further develop your skills.

We recognise that many people are prevented from furthering their leather working skills because of cost, these bursaries seek to help cover or subsidise the cost of training for people who would otherwise be prevented from pursuing this career as a result of cost. These studies can be at any level, formal or informal.

GRANT AMOUNT
The maximum grant that may be awarded to an individual is £4,000.

Please note these bursary applications and process are managed by Heritage Crafts with the Leathersellers’ providing funding, support and being involved in the interview stage. If you have any queries prior to application please contact Heritage Crafts team through the link above.
