Hi Everyone,
I’d like to flag up a bursary scheme that one of your members, Adebanji, has already participated in, and some of you may be interested in applying for.
I’m working alongside British Airways on the Great Britons scheme which has been set to support their sponsorship of the London 2012 Games. The scheme aims to support emerging British talent in art (alongside five other categories) and will look for individuals who demonstrate the spirit associated with the Olympic and Paralympic Games.
The scheme runs on a 2 month cycle (entries for the current round close on the 6th July) and eventual winners will be given the opportunity to fly to a BA destination of their choice in order to help them grow their talent.
The next search for future Great Britons has just begun, so if a flight could help your talent develop, you can now apply to travel anywhere in the world where British Airways flies. Applying is easy: just visit http://www.greatbritons.ba.com/how-to-apply for more details.
Ask away if you’d like any more details – it would be great to see some of you apply.
Thanks,
Rowan
