This year we received 653 scholarship entries across three categories that included Creative Writing Pieces, Vlogs and Posters. We continue to be impressed by the quality and creativity of the entries we reeive each year.
This year was the second year of our new Sustainability Abroad Scholarship. This scholarship combines two crucial aspects of education: sustainability and global experiences. At a time when travel is now more accessible than ever, this scholarship recognises the importance of promoting sustainable practices and environmental consciousness while fostering cultural understanding and international study experiences. It is fantastic to see how students are considering the impact their international travel experiences have on the planet and what changes they can make to minimise this impact now and in the future.
We are pleased to announce the winners for the 2024 scholarships and invite you to enjoy their winning entries. Each winner will receive a £500 scholarship to use towards their study abroad experience.
