Application for a subsidised PhotoVoice training place

PhotoVoice’s commitment to working with underrepresented individuals and communities extends to its training content as well. We’re delighted to be able to offer free spaces on PhotoVoice courses for eligible participants if any future course isn’t fully sold out.

While many of our courses do sell out, occasionally last minute places are available. To apply to be considered to this place, certain eligibility criteria must apply.

Eligibility criteria:

  • An individual with income lower than £19 000 per year if a UK resident and low household income outside the UK (verification may be required)
  • A recipient of benefits or financial support
  • Self-funded full-time student (not a recipient of a scholarship or financial support for their studies)
  • A representative of a small organisation or community group with expected turnover lower than £50 000 a year

If you meet one or more of our eligibility criteria please use the application form below in order to apply.

Selection process
Applicants will be considered eligible on the basis of meeting one or more of the above criteria, which also need to be supported by a compelling personal statement, describing how the eligibility criteria is met in more details and why we should award them a free place.

Lottery
Those selected for a free place will be put on a lottery list and 1-2 weeks prior to the start of each training course, providing there are available places, a name will be drawn. The awarded individual will be notified a week before the course is due to commence, however in the event of cancellations, this notice may be shorter.

How often places will become available
Places note that once your application is approved, free places will be made available based on last minute availability on our courses and you will be notified that you are awarded a free place as soon as possible before the start of the training.

Submission of this application form does not guarantee acceptance onto a course. We expect that demand will be higher than available spaces, and it will not be possible to accommodate all requests.

If you have any questions about the application process please contact us.
