Thank you to The Post Office Remembrance Fellowship for another year of funding towards our grant programmes.
Their generous donation of £35,000 is helping us to provide record numbers of postal family children with the opportunities to thrive and reach their full potential. Their funding will be specifically used to help fund our Rising Star Bursary programme. Our Rising Stars Bursary is aimed at postal families with children (under the age of 18) where the child has a special talent or passion in the arts (art, music, performance, literature), sport or other specialist area and the families need help with the associated costs. We provide up to £850 a year to students to fund costs such as expensive equipment (including clothing and/or instruments), travel or dedicated coaching.
We are on track to support over 50 children with their talents and passions this year. You can hear from some of the children we have helped here. A massive thank you to The Post Office Remembrance Fellowship for making this possible.
