Unit 306 (2.2) - Research and Development

Sources of income:
My primary income(ideally) would come from me being employed as a company dancer, the wage for this job could be equity minimum which is £440 per week, or this could increase depending on employment.

If I worked a second job in order to support my primary income, I would work as a barmaid. If I worked 24 hours a week (evenings) on minimum wage for a 21 year old, I would earn £160.80 per week, £643.20 per month or £7,718.40 per year (Before taxes)


How can I fund myself as a performer?:

10 institutions that support individuals and/or organisations:

What will they fund? 
"For the next four years until 2022 we’ll invest across three key funding streams: 
  • £409 million per year in 830 arts organisations, museums and libraries in our National Portfolio. This will include £341 million of grant-in-aid and £68 million of National Lottery funding. 
  • £97.3 million of National Lottery funding per year in Arts Council National Lottery Project Grants, our open-access funding programme.

What is the process of applying for funding? 
Grants for the Arts (soon to be project grants) is a rolling programme with no deadlines. Decisions on applications for £15,000 or less take six weeks. Decisions on applications of over £15,000 take 12 weeks.  Grant range: £1,000 to £100,000.
