Open call for Ulster-Scots Language Week 2023
24 August 2023
Derry City and Strabane District Council is set to partner with the Ulster-Scots Agency to host a week-long programme of events to celebrate Ulster-Scots Language Week or Leid Week which runs from 20 – 24 November 2023.
The Council is now inviting proposals for events and activities which, if selected, will form part of our Ulster-Scots Language Week programme later in the year. The Council welcomes proposals for events and activities which raise awareness of the Ulster-Scots language in creative and engaging ways and hopes to build on the success of previous years’ programmes which included music, poetry, drama, the spoken word and short film.
Applicants may apply for a maximum grant of £250 to support the development and delivery of each event or activity, and prospective applicants are required to complete a short proposal form available to download from the Council website: https://www.derrystrabane.com/services/ulster-scots/call-for-proposals. Completed proposal forms should be returned by 12 noon on Friday 15 September 2023.
