- Applicants can only make one application to the Leverhulme Trust.
- Departmental Centres and Museums listed here should apply through the body under which they are grouped.
- Applicants from other bodies (e.g. the Fitzwilliam Museum) should apply to the most appropriate ranking unit from the list below.
