Established in 2016, the fellowship is a research-focused residency program for individuals whose research will benefit from access to London's institutions, libraries, practices, professionals, and other unique resources. The program is based at Wimbledon House, which was designed by Lord Richard Rogers in the late 1960s. Each of the six fellows receives a three-and-a-half-month residency at Wimbledon House, as well as roundtrip travel expenses, a $10,000 cash stipend, and unique access to London's resources. Lodging includes a private bedroom with a desk and a private bathroom.
The Foundation will consider requests to support museums, cultural, and performing arts programs; schools, hospitals, educational and skills training programs, programs for youth, seniors, and the handicapped; environmental and wildlife protection activities; and other community-based organizations and their programs. Grants typically range from $1,000 to $20,000.
