The Film Culture Fund will support greater audience engagement with a 
diverse range of film content and ensure the inclusion of screen 
heritage in film production. Grants of £2,000 to £50,000 are available 
for organisations in the English regions outside London such as cinemas, 
film archives, film festivals and the non-theatrical exhibition sector 
(mobile cinema and film societies), for project activity including:

Audience development within the film exhibition sector.
Film education activities which are linked to and support film 
exhibition infrastructure e.g. cinemas, film festivals, film societies 
and other platforms.
The acquisition, preservation and conservation of and access to regional 
screen heritage.

£490,000 is available in the first round of funding. Applications must 
be made via the online system and should be submitted by noon on 28 
November 2011. For more information please go to the website
