Andy Fanshawe Memorial Trust

The AFMT awards grants to economically disadvantaged young people to develop further an existing interest and experience in adventurous outdoor activities. These include walking, climbing, cycling, kayaking, sailing, horse riding - either self-planned or for residential courses at an outdoor centre to improve on specific existing skills. Organisations such as schools or youth groups within the UK are usually funded rather than individuals, although individuals who can provide a referee may be considered. Applicants with passionate and imaginative projects and some fund-raising experience are preferred.
