Andy Fanshawe Memorial Trust

The AFMT awards grants to disadvantaged young people to develop an existing interest and experience in adventurous outdoor activities. This includes walking, climbing, cycling, kayaking, sailing, horse riding – either self-planned or for residential courses at an outdoor centre. Mostly, they’re looking for enthusiasm, initiative and a sense of adventure.

You should only apply for funding if you fulfil all these criteria:

• You (or the young person/people for whom you are applying) are developing existing experience and interest.
• There is an element of adventure in your plans.
• The activity is taking place within the United Kingdom.
• You have done some fund-raising for the activity or adventure.
• You are prepared to write a short report after your adventure/s.
