Youth Hostel AssocIation (The) Bursary Scheme Towards Residential Stays (England & Wales) – Deadline: Rolling
Schools and colleges in areas of high deprivation in England and Wales can apply for support towards the cost of
a residential stay at a Youth Hostel Association (YHA) owned hostel. The funding
is made available through the YHA Bursary Scheme. The scheme is open to primary schools, secondary schools, special schools, schools offering alternative provision or colleges based in areas of high social deprivation and that have high numbers (upwards of 20%) of children receiving pupil premium or free school meals.
The bursary can be used towards payment for a school residential with an overnight stay (with or without catering and activities) at any YHA-owned hostel that has availability. No school can access more than one bursary per residential stay. The YHA also offers funding to support children, young people, and families living with challenges through its Breaks Programme
