The Northern Rock Foundation has decided to close four of its funding programmes and scale down its 2008 grants budget to just £7m - a third of this year's expenditure. The move comes as uncertainty about the future of its parent company continues.

The majority of our funding will now be channelled through the Main Fund which will be an open, less prescriptive way of working, through which we will listen to ideas. We expect to fund a wider range of work than before, although our core interests remain in the fields of culture, education, environment and social development.
As part of our new funding approach we are also running a number of smaller, more focused funding strands. These will be in areas where we think a more direct intervention may have a greater impact. The first three will be: Biodiversity, Museum and Heritage Collections, and New Approaches to Learning. We plan to launch further funding strands later in the year.
