Fellowships will not be granted for the furtherance of doctoral research. Fellowships will normally be up to one year's duration, commencing on the 1st of September following the award.  Save in exceptional cases the sums awarded will each have a maximum value of £10,000, and will be expected to cover the costs of accommodation, travel, photography, photocopying and all other expenses relating to the work for which the Fellowship is awarded. Fellows will be expected to arrange for the publication of their research.

Applicants must  supply a curriculum vitae and an outline of the research they intend to undertake. The Trustees will require a detailed indication of the likely cost of the project, a statement of alternative sources of funding (including other current applications), and an assurance that applicants can obtain access to relevant material.

Fellowships, Grants and other awards are open to men and women of all nationalities.
