LPT is keen to support innovative research projects

Applications are now open for the 2025 The Little Princess Trust New Ideas Grants! 

We are keen to back innovation in children and young people’s cancer research, supporting promising ideas which may be challenging to find funding for from traditional research funders.

‘New Ideas Grants’ are there to help researchers generate high-quality preliminary data, or to demonstrate the validity of a hypothesis/study, to advance innovative and novel ideas with the potential to transform the treatment of children and young people’s cancer.

We are looking for projects which are genuinely new and haven’t been done before.

We are therefore looking for impactful, ‘thinking outside the box’ ideas. Applicants should have a novel hypothesis. You may have some preliminary data that can be developed further, but this is not a pre-requisite for this grant round.

Exciting ideas with the greatest potential will be prioritised to secure further funding, including from LPT in future innovation-focused funding rounds. We are looking for projects which are genuinely new and haven’t been done before.
