Funding

Post by kzgirl »

I was just wondering if anyone knows of any scholarships, bursaries or charities that we could apply to for extra funding to help with the costs of attending uni. I know about student finance and the low income bursaries from the uni but is there anything else I have missed. Money will be tight and DD will have to work. DD will be doing the degree course at Chichester.

Have you checked whether your local authority offer any funding bursaries? I know here in Berkshire there is a scheme to help talented young people with the cost of their chosen field. Its not much but every little helps.

don't know if these any help...
We also contacted our local council offices who put us in touch with local grants and bursaries which really helped.
Good luck

Hi there.
A real long shot here but did anyone happen to write down the list of trusts from drama uk as the website has now closed down and I was only down to F.
Many Thanks.

A website called turn2us has a list of charities/ funding links i think (not arts specific though) and i also think local libraries have a book with full list of funding/ charities. Might be worth asking. I didn't get anywhere asking local council when we were hoping to raise funds for DD to do ymt, ours doesn't seem that knowledgeable.
