When will sailing bursaries be available?

The Classic Sailing CIC bursary programme is underway. Fund raising is now active, see below.

Full details of eligibility, application criteria, opening dates and the voyages included will be published once funds are available and the scheme is ready to launch.

We have introduce the Classic Sailing CIC Membership Scheme. Members will have the opportunity to take part in the bursary award process by serving on the Bursary Review Panel through online Zoom meetings.

All bursary applications will undergo a comprehensive vetting process before being presented to the Review Panel. Personal information will be handled in accordance with data protection requirements, allowing panel members to make informed, fair and impartial recommendations.
