Grants

PSGB Conservation Grants

These are awards, typically not exceeding £750, to assist research of benefit to primate conservation and primate conservation education. The remit is very broad, and although the financial value of the grants is quite small, it should be remembered that approval from the PSGB is invaluable when applying for money from other sources.

PSGB Captive Care Grants

These are awards, typically not exceeding £750, to assist research of benefit to primate welfare in captivity and primate welfare education. Although the financial value of the grants is quite small, it should be remembered that approval from the PSGB is invaluable when applying for money from other sources.
