The charity organisation, Help Musicians, is currently administering a fund where UK-based professional musicians can apply for financial support towards the cost of touring e.g., accommodation, transport, venue hire, sound and lighting engineers, PR and marketing. Applicants must be over 18, have an active career, and must not already have significant backing (e.g., from a record label or investor). To find out more or apply, see - www.helpmusicians.org.uk.
