EU Funding - Brexit Update

The Government published new guidance as of 26 August 2020. Please see this link for further information.

Under the Withdrawal Agreement, the UK will continue to participate in programmes funded under the current 2014-2020 Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) until their closure. Although the UK has left the EU, you will continue to get any EU funding you have already been awarded. This includes funding you are due to get after 31 December 2020. You can still apply to some EU funds under the current spending framework. It has not yet been decided what funding UK organisations will be able to apply for after the spending framework ends.
