The Fellowship Academy is very much developed by the fellows themselves. Alongside our expert classes on research impact, funding we鈥檝e also got writing retreats and a fellows committee to enable them to design their own activities based on what the group feels they need.

I鈥檓 really delighted to have one of the largest cohorts of humanities fellows in recent years. I鈥檓 looking forward to spending time with our fellows across the next three years.鈥�
