Duncraig Educational Trust Scheme

The Duncraig Educational Trust Scheme provides financial assistance to young Highland people with exceptional or unique talent. The scheme supports youth who attend or attended secondary school in the Highland Council area, or whose parents or grandparents attended a Highland secondary school for a minimum of two years. There are two categories of awards: sports grants for 14 to 25 year olds who have been selected to participate in sporting events at national or international level, or who require specialist sports coaching, training or equipment to compete at such levels; and grants for 16 to 25 year olds undertaking specialist courses of study in arts, language and heritage, science and environment, or to purchase specialist equipment for such courses. The program is designed to support the development of exceptional young talent from the Highland region of Scotland.
