Youth Travel Bursary
The Youth Travel Bursary provides young people aged 16-24 with a financial contribution to a project which involves travel and work in an underdeveloped/developing country.
The project must be of at least four weeks duration. The applicants must live in the Shirley Lions area as defined on the attached form.
The applicant must be funding or fundraising themselves as well and be able to describe the benefit to the community they are visiting as well as the benefits to themselves.
Applicants may be undertaking the project independently or as a part of a wider enterprise.
