Welcome to the Royal Literary Fund

The Royal Literary Fund is a British charity that has been supporting authors since 1790, among them James Joyce, D.H. Lawrence, Dylan Thomas and Edith Nesbit. We provide grants to writers in financial difficulty: novelists, poets, playwrights, screenwriters and translators.
How to Apply

We run education programmes where writers deploy their talents for the wider benefit. Our Fellowship scheme funds writers to work one-to-one with university students. We also provide writing development workshops to schools and our community projects nurture resilience, engagement and empowerment.
