Q Exchange: collaborative grant funding
Tap into the expertise of the Q community and get your improvement idea funded through our flagship programme.
Q Exchange offers up to £40,000 to member-led improvement projects in a collaborative process that draws on the knowledge of the community to refine, develop and vote on proposals. Find out more about the funded projects.
A unique funding approach
Through Q Exchange, members can bid for up to £40,000 of funding for projects with the potential to create impact across the health and care system.
It is a truly collaborative and transparent process where Q members invite the community to help them develop and refine project ideas before submitting their final proposal.
The community then votes for the projects they would like Q to fund from a shortlist of proposals.
Q Exchange in 2025
Over 2025, the Q team will be taking the opportunity to review our flagship funding programme, Q Exchange.
There have been six rounds of the programme since 2018, supporting a wide range of fantastic projects to make a difference on pressing health care challenges.
Reviewing our offers for the community is an important part of ensuring that we’re supporting you the best way we can. We will also continue to support existing Q Exchange award holders but will pause rather than opening a new round until plans firm. We look forward to sharing updates later this year.
If you have any questions, get in touch.
