The space is available for between two and eight weeks in January to end of March. The studio is free of charge and structured mentoring will be available from the DTF team to support project development, along with some financial support for travel to facilitate career opportunities and professional networking.  The Residency also includes the following benefits: heating, wifi, access to printer and scanner, access to kitchen, free tea and coffee supplies etc.
