Succeed Award

The Succeed Award is a bursary programme designed to assist young individuals in the local community of Buckinghamshire in pursuing apprenticeships, vocational courses or higher education. Each successful applicant will receive an unrestricted bursary of £1,000 to support their studies or training. The award is specifically targeted at driven individuals with aspirations for higher education or vocational training who need financial support to fuel their academic or career journey. Awards of £1,000 are granted to applicants who can best demonstrate a strong commitment to their existing studies or training, a track record of previous achievement, and clear future plans aligned with their educational or career aspirations. The programme supports individuals who are in at least their second year of higher education, vocational course, study, or training programme, or apprentices with a minimum of one year of experience in their role. Applicants must have a strong connection to Buckinghamshire (excluding Milton Keynes), demonstrated by either residency in the local area for at least five out of the last seven years, or having worked or studied in the local area for at least four out of the last five years. This award can only be applied for once per individual.
