The Committee for Women and Diversity in Mathematics offers the following schemes to support mathematicians:
Inclusion and Diversity Fund
The Inclusion and Diversity Fund aims to support events that promote EDI in mathematics, broadly speaking. The focus of these events may be on any aspect of diversity, including but not limited to race, ethnicity, gender, trans identity, sexual orientation, sex, age, religion or religious belief, neurodiversity, socioeconomic status, disabilities, and background. The fund is supported by the Heilbronn Institute for Mathematical Research.
Caring Supplementary Grants
To enable parents and other carers to attend conferences and other research schools, meetings or visits by making a contribution towards caring costs.
Maximum award: £200
Applications are open year-round, and decisions are made on a quarterly basis in September, December, March ann June.
Grace Chisholm Young Fellowships
A fellowship of 1 year which endorses the holder’s status as a mathematician, so that a break in employment does not prevent them from resuming a career at a later stage.
Maximum award: £2,000 (£1,500 to applicant, £500 stipend to the university)

Emmy Noether Fellowships
Fellowships of 1 year to enhance the maths research of holders either re-establishing their career after a break or dealing with significant caring responsibilities.
Awards: between £2,000 and £10,000, to a total of £25,000
Deadline: there is no fixed deadline for this scheme but the call for applications is normally issed in February or March.
