ROYAL PAPWORTH HOSPITAL INNOVATION FUND
CALL FOR APPLICATIONS
We are pleased to announce the latest call for the Innovation Fund, and are excited to announce that in this call there will be funding for both clinical and non-clinical projects or innovations, up to a maximum of £50,000 per project.
The Innovation Fund is a collaboration between Royal Papworth Hospital Charity and Research and Development Directorate.
The fund aims to support:
- projects / innovations which will have a direct impact on patient care both locally and nationally.
- non-clinical projects which align to the Trust’s values or a key strand of the Trusts Strategy
- feasibility or pilot work that will provide results or other information that will permit or otherwise enhance the likelihood of securing external peer-reviewed grant funding.
The scheme is open to all employees of Royal Papworth Hospital NHS Foundation Trust; non-medical staff are also encouraged to apply for the award.
Applications from individuals with Honorary Contracts with the Trust are welcomed providing that the grant will be held at RPH and the project is conducted in collaboration with a named Trust employee and/or that the Trust will be the named lead institution and grant holder in any subsequent application to external funding sources. Individuals who are in receipt of a current Innovation Fund award are not able to apply for another award as the main applicant.
Please see the attached Guidance Notes, Application Form and checklist for full details on how to apply.
The Deadline for applications is Sunday 28th July 2024, but you are encouraged to register your interest at the earliest opportunity so that your proposal can be optimally developed.
