British Science Association - Community Grants
Summary
The mission of the British Science Week Community Grant Scheme is to expand the audiences that engage with science and self-identify as having an interest in science by empowering and supporting community groups to run their own science activities during British Science Week.

- people living in a remote and rural location, defined as settlements of less than 10,000 people
