This trust gives grants to refugees (those with refugee status or exceptional leave to remain in the UK, asylum seekers are unfortunately not eligible) undertaking postgraduate studies in the UK, primarily those who are doing a part time degree and not in the first year of study.
Applicants must have good oral and written English, have some work experience, and would ideally be engaged in part time work to help fund themselves.
The Trust deals mainly with Masters rather than MPhil/PhD students.
Interested applicants should telephone the Trust on 01258 471444 for an informal interview to check their suitability.
Grants are normally in the region of £1500.
New enquiries must be made before 01 May in the proposed year of study.
