Jerwood Award

The Royal Society of Literature Jerwood Awards for Non-Fiction[1] were financial awards made to assist new writers of non-fiction to carry out new research, and/or to devote more time to writing.[2] The awards were administrated by the Royal Society of Literature on behalf of the Jerwood Charitable Foundation.

Recipients must have a publishing contract and be citizens of either the UK or Ireland, or have been residents in one of these for at least the last three years.[3]

In 2017, the awards were replaced by the Giles St Aubyn Awards for Non-Fiction.[4]
