Millennium Point Charitable Trust STEAM grants (West Midlands): can it pay for a STEM workshop?
Short answer
Possibly, with conditions
Closing soonCloses 4 December 2026 (23 days left)
A school can apply itself for a STEAM project, and the Trust's FAQs ask applicants to list each item or activity the grant will pay for with its cost, including the cost of any named speaker. The Trust's pages do not say whether an external workshop provider's fee qualifies, so check with the Trust before building a bid around a workshop. The FAQs say payment is made in September and the project must then be finished within 12 months, so this suits a workshop planned for the next school year, not one this term.

How to use it for a workshop
Build the workshop into a wider STEAM project with clear, measurable goals, and list it as a costed activity in the budget. Ask the Trust first whether an external provider's fee is an eligible cost. The application form is on the Trust's website and must be sent in by 4 December 2026.
