Getting funding from Screen Yorkshire

Screen Yorkshire has a number of funds which individuals or businesses can access. Our funds have specific targets which are set by our funders, Yorkshire Foward and UK Film Council, but we try to be as flexible as possible in supporting your career or business. Please be aware that our funds are made up of taxpayers' or lottery money and therefore there are strict criteria which each investment has to meet.

Business Investment Fund - if you are a business looking to grow and create economic wealth in the region we may be able to share the risk with you and invest in a project. More>

Production Fund - we can invest in production based in the region to bring inward investment, create jobs and promote the region. More>

Short Film Funding - we have various short film funding schemes which we operate on behalf of the UK Film Council. These schemes have set application deadlines and are much in demand. More>

Exhibition and Education - we distribute RIFE Lottery Funding on behalf of the UK Film Council to support audience development, cultural access, education and participation. More>
