Update from Diana Aitchison Fund :
We are still accepting applications to the DA Fund. We receive many applications for learning support from home students in the UK, which haven't been affected to the same degree as foreign placements. For those applications that include foreign travel, we have awarded the funds but delayed payment of the grant until we receive confirmation that such can go ahead safely and in line with relevant guidelines etc.

DIANA AITCHISON FUND
This fund, in memory of nurserywoman Diana Aitchison, awards grants and
bursaries to support younger people who wish to pursue or further a career in
horticulture and can demonstrate an interest in furthering their knowledge of
alpine and rock garden plants. The DA Fund is still accepting and determining
applications for activity that can be undertaken at a future date when COVID-19
restrictions will permit, or for activity which can take place whilst restrictions are
in place, so applicants should continue to apply.
For application forms and awards criteria please go to:

Announcement January 2021 from the Merlin Trust
"It was a difficult decision but the Merlin Trust has decided to suspend all grants until September 2021. While we will review this decision throughout the year, we hope to open applications for UK-only travel in September - with new awards available."
