I try to keep an up to date list of every expedition grant, adventure scholarship and challenge bursary available in the UK.
My latest list is published in brief below and full details can be found on my Sponsorship Resources page.
It’s hard to keep track of them all though so I’d appreciate any help with keeping the list up to date.
Do you know any that I’ve missed?
Please do add a comment below or send me an email.
