This Actor reads GOV.UK Find a grant, the UK government's list of open grant schemes, and returns one record per scheme: funder, minimum and maximum award, total funding pot, who can apply, where, when applications open and close, and the full eligibility, objectives and how-to-apply text.

What it does

  • Returns one record per open scheme: 116 when this was verified.
  • Filters at the source: keyword, who can apply, location, award band and the date a scheme was added, plus the site's own sort orders.
  • Reads each scheme's page for the summary, eligibility, objectives, dates, how to apply and supporting information, and the official apply link.
  • Needs no API key.

Coverage and limits

  • Some schemes publish a placeholder closing date (the woodland grant above states its 2030 date is when funding is confirmed until, not a deadline). Dates are returned as published.

Pricing

Pay per event: one grant-scraper event per scheme written to the dataset. The optional schema.org block is charged once per run.
