The Governors of this charity, founded in 1656 by William Perkins of Salford Priors and London, invite applications for awards from young people between the ages of 17 to 25.
Grants are available to help with expenses in courses of study in further and higher education, vocational training such as apprenticeships, and in some circumstances, structured programmes of personal development such as overseas visits.
Applicants must have been resident in one of the following parishes – Salford Priors, Bidford, Broom, Cleeve Prior or Harvington – for not less than two years immediately prior to their application.
The application form may be completed via the website: www.williamperkinscharity.org
Please note that first time applicants must also provide a testimonial from a teacher, tutor or employer.
Application forms may also be downloaded and posted or submitted by email.
