Our Bursary Scheme
At Bike Hike & Paddle, our bursary scheme aims to support individuals who might not afford participation in our activities through other means. Here’s how it works:
Affordability Focus: Our primary goal is to assist those who face financial challenges, ensuring they can still participate within the expedition.
Not Just for Profit: As a 'not just for profit' organisation, we are committed to community and inclusivity, using our resources to make a positive impact beyond commercial interests.
Application Process: Participants interested in applying for a bursary need to write a letter themselves, roughly one side of A4. This letter should express their interest, explain their needs and how this bursary will help them. We are especially interested in hearing the voice of the young person and their aspirations.
Limited and Discretionary: Our bursaries are limited in number, and payments are made at our discretion. We carefully consider each application to allocate resources as fairly as possible.
Support Welcomed: We openly welcome donations and support to our bursary scheme, allowing us to extend our help to more individuals.
This scheme reflects our dedication to making our activities accessible to a wider community, ensuring inclusivity and support for everyone.
