Important notes:
1. Due to high demand, the Blues Fund is only able to support those pursuing a Blue or Half-Blue sport. Non-Blues sports are therefore not eligible for funding.
2. There is a cap of £500 on any individual award.
3. A condition of receiving funding from this fund is that, should you be successful, you must be willing for the amount of money you receive to be publicised by the Development Office. You may also be asked to write an article for the annual magazine, Imprint.
4. If you are successful in your application for a grant, you will be expected to provide evidence of how the grant was spent, in the form of receipts and/or invoices, in Trinity Term.
5. Please be aware that the Annual Fund Working Group meets to make its decisions twice a year in Michaelmas Term and Hilary Term. The second round is to consider applications from people who did not apply to the first round, or who have found themselves closer to selection since an unsuccessful first round application.
