AUDE project funding: support for member-led innovation

AUDE is seeking ideas from members that could benefit the wider sector and offering funds to support the work. All members are invited to bid for funds by 31 October for projects, campaigns or initiatives that could support the work of estates and facilities professionals in higher education.

Bidders should complete this short online form by 31 October 2026, setting out:

  1. what you would like to do
  2. why it matters to AUDE members
  3. how much funding you are seeking
  4. the timeframe for the work
  5. how the proposal links with AUDE’s strategic objectives, or addresses an emerging issue

This is your chance to bring forward ideas that could benefit the wider sector — from tackling an emerging challenge, supporting collaboration, delivering practical guidance, to helping members respond to new priorities in estates and facilities management. Previous funding has helped deliver AUDE’s Cleaning Services Benchmarking Review.

If you wish to make a bid, please read the guidelines and process, and remember to submit your bid by 31 October 2026 via the online form as directed.

For any further questions, please contact: info@aude.ac.uk
