We are seeking to support initiatives that promote equity of opportunity, enable us to reach a wide range of musical genres, and cover a broad geographic spread across the UK, reflecting PPL’s membership. Initiatives should also positively enhance PPL’s profile to its audience and will be looked at in the context of PPL’s member engagement strategies. All decisions made to award funding will be based upon these funding principles.
PPL Giving is focused on contributing to projects which meet one or more of our three funding categories:
- Support the development of musical talent through educational initiatives, either within a formal educational setting, or via an organisation focused on developing future talent (e.g. delivering opportunities for new talent to learn and apply performance and recording skills, or supporting other vocational skills training and work experience in the music industry).
- Enable new performance or employment opportunities, providing career development for musical performers, including through recording and live performance.
- Provide or facilitate the provision of artist welfare.
