The 2024 Bursary Scheme is now closed. We will be in touch with applicants in due course.
The Black Isle Farmers’ Society Bursary is open to young people between the ages of 16 -26 years that is, between their 16th and 26th birthdays at the closing date of 15 April 2024. Applications are invited from people who live, study or work in the Highlands and Islands or have strong connections to the area.
We encourage young people to apply to this bursary for any project they believe is relevant. We do not offer a standard funding limit amount as we review each application on a case by case basis.
The Society has a limited pot of funds, and welcome applications from candidates who fit the criteria. The maximum award limit to any one candidate will not exceed £1000.
Part of the application criteria is that we ask you to assist with a Black Isle Farmers’ event such as the ploughing match or Black Isle Show. If you are unable to attend the Black Isle Show we would ask that you volunteer at your local show instead.
