Taskscape for Grant-Funded Projects
Over 20 years, Taskscape has enhanced and helped deliver large-scale projects funded by national and international funding programmes and private foundations.
We've gained valuable experience along the way and developed specialisms in supporting research-in-action projects (where stakeholder engagement is essential) as well as heritage and cultural regeneration projects. These specialisms include work within European Union flagship programmes, such as Horizon Europe and Erasmus+, as well as the UK's National Lottery Heritage Fund.
