Within our Child Development Fund, we are interested in the psychological and behavioural development of our children, and particularly in certain neurodevelopmental conditions and the factors that influence them. To that end we fund:

Research, as a main priority.

Eligibility includes universities/academic institutions. Before applying for funding you should check our individual programme application guideline pages for any exceptions.

For 2022/2023 we have calls for research projects that focus on one of six themes relating to child development: Rolandic Epilepsy, The Neurodiverse Brain, Motor Impairment, Sleep, Physical Activity and Diet and/or the microbiome.

We are currently inviting applications for research funding into two different topics: Diet/Microbiome and The Neurodiverse Brain and look forward to supporting projects that complement our research interests in these areas. As always, we remain particularly interested in research related to neurodevelopmental disorders and their co-occurrence.

For more information about the specifics of this call please visit our deadlines page. Please note our call for research into Rolandic Epilepsy is now open all year round. We suggest you get in touch with us via email if you would like to discuss or submit to this call.
