courses bursary fund
We want our courses to be accessible to all, so everyone has the opportunity to build on their skills and knowledge to live more sustainably. To make our courses more affordable, we have a Courses Bursary Fund which is open to application to anyone who couldn't afford to attend one of our courses otherwise.
When you purchase a place on a course, there is the option to give an amount above the standard price if you feel that your financial circumstances allow you to pay into the Courses Bursary Fund. The idea behind 'pay it forward' systems like this is to do acts of kindness which will have a positive effect on others, and in return the recipients are just asked to pass on the good deed to keep the cycle going.
The bursary fund is used to subsidise courses for people who otherwise could not afford to attend a course. Individuals who feel their financial circumstances won't allow them to participate in a course due to cost, can apply for a bursary once a year, which will subsidise the course by up to 50% for one course place.
If you have any further questions about our Courses Bursary Fund, please Contact Us.
