The popularity of the schemes however means that towards the end of the financial year, they are not able to support as many organisations as they would like. So, changes have been made to the way in which organisations can apply, to ensure that no Hampshire organisation is disadvantaged because of the timing of their event or activity. It will also enable the Executive Member to make decisions based on priority cases which support Hampshire County Council policy and objectives. There are no changes to the criteria for eligibility, but significant changes to when and how you can apply. arts@hants.gov.uk www.hants.gov.uk/arts/funding/index.html OTHER FUNDING SOURCES Arts Council England the national development agency for the arts in England, distributing public money from Government and the National Lottery www.artscouncil.org.uk Awards For All: a National Lottery grants programme aimed at local communities. www.awardsforall.org.uk The Big Lottery Fund The Big Lottery Fund gives out millions of pounds from the National Lottery to good causes.
