The Barnstondale Bursary Scheme

The Barnstondale Centre Bursary Fund has been established to make a positive difference to the lives of children and young people who face barriers to this experience. We're passionate about giving everyone the opportunity to make lasting memories and believe that adventurous outdoor activity gives children and young people the chance to challenge themselves, build resilience and discover new skills and abilities.

There is support available for individuals, up to 50% per place, and each application is judged on its merits. We will consider all applications where need is demonstrated.

Previous bursary recipients are allowed to apply again for a bursary after 12 months but are unlikely to be awarded a bursary at the maximum percentage. Previous receipt of a bursary does not mean that you will be automatically eligible to receive one in the future.

If you wish to apply please complete our online application here. 

If you have any queries regarding your application please get in touch at info@barnstondale.uk

Prior to completing your application please note that:

• Applications should be completed by an organisational lead or member of the school Senior Leadership Team (SLT).
• Our bursary fund isn’t unlimited, so please think carefully about which young people would most benefit or who would not be able to attend without this financial support.
• Applications for our Bursary Scheme are usually replied to within 3 months of receiving the application. The level of support given is reliant on how much funding we have managed to secure. We will prioritise financial support for people/groups who are from underserved communities. This could include disadvantage for social, physical, economic or community reasons.

• Our bursary support is usually between 10% discount off an individual's net total visit cost, up to a maximum of 50%, where need is demonstrated. Previous bursary recipients can apply again for a bursary after 12 months. Previous receipt of a bursary does not mean that you will be automatically eligible to receive one in the future.

  We wish you every success with your application.
