 CoScan travel award

Application forms are available from:

Dr Brita Green
103 Long Ridge Lane, Nether Poppleton

The application should be on the official application form, accompanied by a personal letter, to be received no later than March 2014.


The travel awards scheme was initiated in 1985, the 'International year of Youth', and its aim is to help young British people to visit a Scandinavian country. It is open to anyone between the ages of 15 and 25 who is planning to undertake a worthwhile project of a broadly educational nature.
Applicants do not have to be members of an affiliated society, though a recommendation  from one may carry some weight.
The travel award fund is modest as it consists of donations from Anglo-Scandinavian societies in Britain, collected through various events, and from a few individuals who make regular or sporadic contributions.

Unfortunately the funds do not allow us to help large scale projects. The awards are generally in the region of £75-150.

Successful applicants in the past have included young people looking for vocational experience or attending summer camps/courses, university students, young farmers, members of youth orchestras, scouts and guides.
