Equalities Monitoring

To monitor the type of applications we receive and the grants we award, we need to collect information which does not directly relate to our assessment of your application.

Creative Scotland and Screen Scotland put equality at the heart of its activity, and we aim to acknowledge and reflect the diversity in Scotland today in all our work.

Filling out the Equalities Monitoring Form helps us learn more about the diversity of our applicants and the people we support with funding.

Your responses help us see if there are any gaps or areas where we can do better. This way, we can ensure that more people can benefit from our funding. Your contribution to this work is crucial in making a positive impact.

In this form we ask questions regarding age, sex, ethnicity, disability, and sexual orientation. This covers some of the ‘protected characteristics’ in The Equality Act 2010. We also include questions on gender identity, socio-economic background and Gaelic language.

The information you provide will be used to create aggregated statistics and reports only and will have no bearing on your application for funding. 

Please be assured that personally identifiable information will not be shared outside our organisation. Any statistics and reports we create for wider publication will be anonymised to protect your privacy.

For information how Creative Scotland handles and uses your personal information, please refer to our Privacy Notice on our website.
