Post by: Maggi Young on December 07, 2011, 03:55:32 PM

Merlin Trust Travel Grant opportunity


We have been asked by the RHS to share this flier with any keen "alpine person" under 35  who might be interested in securing a fully funded place on Bob and Rannveig Wallis’ forthcoming AGS tour in the Taurus from the 4th to the 18th April 2012.

The Merlin Trust was founded by the late Valerie Finnis and provides grants for young persons to travel on exciting plant exploration trips.
This opportunity is for an AGS Trip with Bob and Rannveig Wallis.

N.B. The only application form on the Merlin website is for another tour. 
Here is an amended form:
