Why we offer funding to help people get into publishing
The book trade is a vibrant, important industry but it is very centred on London and it can be difficult to begin your career in it, particularly for those who aren’t based in or near London.
We believe that it's important that everyone has the opportunity to pursue a career in the UK Book Trade, regardless of their situation or background, so offer support to those who would otherwise be unable to take up opportunities for interviews, internships and training.  As such, we welcome applications from people coming from groups which are currently under-represented in the industry.
