In accordance with the terms of the Trust Deed dated 4 March 2021, each year the Trustees invite applications for eligible persons to make an application for a Grant.

In considering applications, the Trustees will have regard to: the age and education status of the applicant; the financial or employment situation of the applicant (if applicable); and the eligibility for or availability to the applicant of assistance from other sources by way of scholarships, grants or otherwise.

Grants will be made to cover a specific course of tuition (or tuition-related activity) and will be made by way of payment or payments direct to the relevant recognised education organisation. Grants will not be considered for reimbursements of tuition costs incurred prior to making a grant application.

The number of grants and the amount of individual grants to be made shall be determined by the Trustees, but they are not obliged to make a grant or grants if they consider the applicant(s) do not meet the requirements of the Deed of Charitable Trust, or if the Trustees consider that to make any grant would not be fiscally prudent at that time.
