Educational bursaries for individuals with connections to the Parish of Newbottle, Sunderland

The Taylor Fund was established in 2005 by the Estate of Mr. Francis William Taylor to provide educational bursaries to residents of, and those with close ties to, the Parish of Newbottle in Sunderland. The fund invites individuals to apply for grants of up to £1,000 to support their educational studies. Grants may cover course fees, travel costs, course materials, books, and equipment. Applicants are encouraged to clearly demonstrate how a grant will support and enhance their educational needs. The Fund operates on a rolling basis, with successful applicants supported on a first-come, first-served basis due to restricted funding available each year. The Fund will support applicants for a maximum of three years and will not support requests for items deemed to be the responsibility of statutory services.
