Through our funding schemes, we invest in, and facilitate, many mathematical activities throughout Scotland. We are proud to fund activities from school level through to research level mathematics.
Some examples of activities we have funded include:

Maths Week Scotland
We fund a wide range of activities through the Maths Week Scotland Small Grants Fund. Since 2018, we've supported hundreds of projects nationally in partnership with the Scottish Government and the Edinburgh Mathematical Society, including a significant £20k investment in 2023. For more details, including how to apply, see our Maths Week Scotland funding section.
Maths wi nae Borders
One of the mainstays of Maths Week Scotland, Maths wi nae Borders has set puzzles which over the years have been completed by thousands of students. The GMJT has supported this fantastic activity over a number of years: in 2024 over 90 classes (and 2000 pupils!) submitted entries, which were marked by an army of volunteers. The winners joined the illustrious Hall of Fame, and were awarded a £25 amazon voucher for each member of the team, together with the much-prized glass trophy.
Regional Events
We support regional activity, including the following regional seminars:
SMSTC
We have fully supported the Scottish Mathematical Sciences Training Centre, over a number of years.
Conferences and Workshops
We fund a wide range of research conference and workshop activity, in total around £20-30k every year, which supports research-level mathematical events throughout Scotland.
Outreach Events
We fund a range of public lectures and Royal Insitution Masterclasses, as well as sponsoring Math Circles aimed at children aged 7 to 14, and their families.
