The visitor programme offers financial support of up to £2,000 per visitor to cover travel and accommodation costs for visits ranging from 1-2 weeks. Visitors are expected to interact with members of the Centre, including participating in the coffee meetings.

We will also consider applications for hosting visitors for workshops, to hold 1-2 day events and focus group meetings.

Applications will be considered three times a year and will be selected by the LCLU Steering Committee.
