In August 2020, the Gillingham & Shaftesbury Agricultural Society, organisers of the Gillingham & Shaftesbury Show, established the Student Support Fund with the aim to support students entering into Agricultural, Horticultural and Countryside courses.
The fund will encourage and support the very best talent that is training for, and entering into careers in agriculture and related land-based industries. The Society will offer help with costs towards college or university course fees, books and equipment or even to help meet the significant transport costs of accessing their place of study, we know that there is a real and pressing need to help our students, apprentices and trainees at this time.
Do you require financial support for the educational year of 2021/22? Applications are now open.
