Who is eligible to apply

This Legacy award funding opportunity is exclusively for applicants that:

have previously received funding through STFC Spark and Nucleus public engagement awards
are based in the UK

The project lead must be eligible to apply on behalf of the organisation that would hold the award. We would usually expect a Legacy award project lead to be:

the same person that applied for the original grant
based at the same host organisation

However, we recognise that applicants may change their host institution or that the leadership of a programme may change. Therefore, we do not require identical project leads or host institutions between the original grant and the Legacy award.

You must highlight any changes in the host institution and project lead in your application in the 'Applicant and team capability to deliver' section.

If there is any uncertainty, we reserve the right to contact the principal investigator or project lead of the original award to confirm the proposed leadership arrangements of the Legacy award.

Subject matter expert requirements

You must include a subject matter expert (SME) in your application that is in an STFC-funded area of science or technology. While these SMEs often play an active role in delivering the engagement activities, this is not mandatory. The SME may act as an adviser on the scientific content.

Previous applications

To apply for a Legacy award, the applicant or their organisation must have previously held one of the following public engagement awards:

Spark award
Nucleus award

The previous award must have ended fewer than 36 months before the current Legacy award funding opportunity closure date.

You may apply for a Legacy award related to one of the previous public engagement awards that is still active at the time of the Legacy award application. In such instances, the proposed Legacy award:

cannot have a start date any earlier than the current end date of the original award
must still be based on clear evidence of the efficacy of the original award, using robust evaluation data

You may apply for up to two Legacy awards related to an original grant.

Applications submitted to previous Legacy funding opportunities may be resubmitted, these should clearly have taken full account of the feedback provided.

Who is not eligible to apply

If you meet either of the following criteria you will not be eligible to apply:

we cannot accept applications for projects that were funded via the Leadership Fellows or Reaction award schemes
applicants applying for their third Legacy award will not be considered

Equality, diversity and inclusion

We are committed to achieving equality of opportunity for all funding applicants. We encourage applications from a diverse range of researchers.

We support people to work in a way that suits their personal circumstances. This includes:

career breaks
support for people with caring responsibilities
flexible working
alternative working patterns
