Leverhulme Trade Charities Trust Undergraduate Bursary

The Leverhulme Trade Charities Trust Undergraduate Bursary provides financial support to undergraduate students at Queen Mary University of London who meet specific eligibility criteria. The bursary is designed to help students from families connected to commercial travelling, pharmacy, or grocery professions who are experiencing financial need. Applicants can receive up to £3,000 per year to support their university education costs. To be eligible, students must be UK residents studying full-time for an undergraduate degree at a recognized UK university. They must also be the child, spouse, widow, or widower of a commercial traveller, pharmacist, or grocer, or be employed themselves in one of these capacities for at least 5 years. The bursary can be used for any reasonable costs connected with attending university, including tuition fees, accommodation costs, living expenses, or equipment necessary for study. The amount awarded depends on the applicant's financial need and the total funding available from the Trust each year. Applications are accepted in two rounds annually, with deadlines in March and October.
