About NALA’s Student Development Fund

NALA’s Student Development Fund is a grant, usually of about €650, for a non-tuition group activity for adults and young people improving their literacy in a programme and for students learning English. In 2022, because of Covid, NALA also made grants available to buy technology items. Centres who receive the fund gather student feedback and that feedback informs NALA’s work and we share it with stakeholders. Small and large organisation members of NALA can apply for the fund.
