no strings attached, the grant award from Farnham Maltings for young theatre makers in the South East is making a return again. Last year AYT Editor Jake sat on the panel for this award, which offers grants between £500 and £1000 to young theatre makers who are based in the South East of England. It’s an excellent scheme, offering mentoring and support for your work, whilst assisting the future of theatre makers.
