Applications are now open for the Roger Walker Education Award. The award now in its third year will help a young person who live in the region to continue in further education.
The award was first launched in 2021 as part of Just Credit Union’s 20th anniversary celebration. It is in memory of Roger Walker who was a founder member, long time Chair and Board member for just Credit Union. He was instrumental in setting up Just Credit Union and remained involved until he passed away in 2020. Education of young people in the region was close to Roger’s heart so this grant is particularly important.
Applications for the £500 award will open 17th July and close 29th August. The award can be used for a variety of purposes including; transport costs, fees or equipment necessary for the course. The purpose of the award is deliberately broad and a panel will consider where the grant can have most impact in helping someone to continue their education who might other wise struggle to do so.
