The Museum Development Fund is designed to support accredited museums to make strategic steps towards becoming more resilient organisations. They will fund support museums to deliver medium sized, strategic sustainable development projects in line with your own business plans and Scotland’s museums and galleries Strategy.

This fund can support a wide range of project activity. You must demonstrate how you will meet the grant outcomes:

1. Funded organisations will be more resilient
2. Funded organisations will be more environmentally sustainable
3. Collections will be better cared for and managed and more accessible
4. The museum workforce will be more skilled, confident, and diverse
5. A wider range of people will be engaging with and represented in museums
6. Museums will enhance quality of life for people by improving wellbeing, supporting learning, or contributing to place-making
