About | Funders

Since its inception Watermans has benefited from consistent financial support from The Arts Council, England(ACE), The London Borough of Hounslow and London Councils and we have funding agreements with them that run through to 2011 and beyond

Watermans is also supported by the UK Film Council and is part of the Digital Film Network

Our aim is to achieve a robust financial position with a broad and active programme that delivers income to cover all of our costs and to maintain a balance sheet that has sufficient reserves to protect us from any unexpected events or fractures in our regular sources of income

We are also constantly investigating new sources of funding and adapting as the market does. We are ahead of the curve with the current trend to project funding. We have already won projects from Sport England, the Department of Culture and Media and the GLA and we are supported by the Baring Foundation

In 2008 we particpated in our first European-wide project funded by the EU collaborating with Arts institutes in Sofia, Barcelona and Berlin which will act as a prototype for similar projects in the future.

Watermans is a leading player in West London's contribution to the 2012 Cultural Olympiad. We are following the very successful London Mix with a succession of projects that will culminate in the year of the Olympics.
