Unscripted TV Skills Fund

Training and skills development for people working in unscripted TV genres – including entertainment, factual entertainment, sport, current affairs and others – is now supported by the Unscripted TV Skills Fund. (This excludes programmes with a budget of £1 million+ an hour which are eligible for the high-end TV tax credit, and programmes made for younger audiences which are eligible for the children’s TV tax credit.)

About the Unscripted TV Skills Fund

The Unscripted TV Skills Fund is a new fund that went live on 1 June 2021 to address skills gaps and shortages in unscripted television across the UK and build a bigger pool of off-screen crew and talent in the nations and regions. The fund is designed to build a more inclusive workforce and future-proof the industry.
