Funding is available to support schools and youth organisations in London and Essex with the costs of visiting museums, theatres, science shows and more. The Jack Petchey Foundation’s Educational Visit Grants provide funding of up to £1,200 (£20 per head) for up to two trips per calendar year to schools and clubs that successfully run the Achievement Award Scheme. SEND schools/organisations, pupil referral units, and alternative education provisions can apply for up to £60 per person for day trips and £100 per person for residential trips. The fund aims to help young people develop a wide range of valuable personal and social skills and provide the chance to learn outside of the classroom. Trips must be of educational value, and funding can be used to pay transport or entrance fees. Applications can be made at any time. Grants to Support Educational Visits (London & Essex)
