Apply: Donald Robertson Travel Fund for Strenuous Open-Air Holidays (Preferably in Mountains)

DEADLINEs: 12pm tuesday 16 may

The Donald Robertson Travel Fund , founded in memory of C. D. Robertson, Fellow of Trinity College, exists for the purpose of enabling those who would otherwise find difficulty in doing so to take strenuous open-air holidays, either at home or abroad, preferably among mountains.

The resources of the Fund are small. It does not support large expeditions or travel for purposes of study. Among unacceptable plans are motor tours for sightseeing, camping with a school party, or living in a caravan on a camp site. Grants are not made to former recipients.

The Trustees invite applications from undergraduates, expecting to graduate in 2024 or later, for grants to be used during the Long Vacation 2023. Application details are obtainable from your Tutorial Office. Each applicant's Tutor should be asked to email directly to the Secretary, supporting the application briefly on the grounds of the need for assistance and the benefit likely to be derived from such a holiday. Applicants whose plans seem suitable will be invited to discuss their plans with the Fund Trustees - normally on one evening in May. The Trustees expect to receive a short report on the holiday from each recipient before Friday 20 October 2023.
