UK-wide Equipment Sharing Fund

Do you need access to specialist research equipment or facilities not available at your institution?
The UK-wide Equipment Sharing Fund is currently open for applications. This fund provides support to visit and use cutting-edge equipment and technical expertise showcased in the ITSS Technology Capabilities Showcase – a national platform highlighting technician-led facilities across the UK.
There are currently 210 facilities already featured and open for collaboration
If your project could benefit from this type of access, apply for funding now – whether you’re looking to test an idea, generate data, or spark a new collaboration. The deadline for this round of funding is 16th May.
If you need help on finding a suitable facility then we can help. Enter your details into the funding application form and provide as much detail as you can and we can help match you to a facility that has the equipment and experience that you require.
And if you’re part of a facility that isn’t yet listed, we’d love to feature you in the Showcase.
