Small Projects and Equipment Fund

Round 2 launched in Autumn 2019 with eligible providers able to bid for grants ranging from £25k - £300k to support capital investment in equipment and small projects. It is now closed with over 30 successful applicants awarded a share of £4.2m funding in Spring 2020.

The Mayor of London is committed to supporting the delivery of skills which help Londoners meet the needs of businesses across the capital. The proposals he has funded through both Round 1 and 2 are helping create dynamic, innovative and inclusive learning environments.

A summary of the supported projects will be uploaded as they enter delivery this Summer.
