The recipients, who will receive an average grant of £9,500, are fellows of the Winston Churchill Memorial Trust. Each year the trust awards funding to fellows to find and apply the world’s best solutions for the UK’s most pressing problems.
This is the second round of Covid Action Fund grants that the trust has awarded – last June, £155,000 was given to 21 urgent projects responding to the crisis. This latest round will support longer-term schemes, with a third round of grants planned later this year.
Lessons learnt from the fellows’ Covid-19 projects will be gathered by the trust to create a national resource and knowledge bank of learning and recommendations for wider sharing.
