Dog-sledding in Abisko – or the worst time of the year to visit Sweden?
The Travel Award scheme was initiated in 1985, the 'International Year of Youth', and its aim is to help young people to visit a Scandinavian country. It is open to any British person between the ages of 15 and 25 who is planning to undertake a worthwhile project of a broadly educational nature in Denmark (including the Faroe Islands and Greenland), Finland, Iceland, Norway and/or Sweden. The travel award fund is modest and does not allow us to help large-scale projects. Successful applicants in the past have included young people looking for vocational experience or attending summer camps and courses; they have been university students, young farmers, scouts and guides, artists and musicians.
The subjects the applicants cover are extraordinarily diverse, and reports and photos from travel award recipients are valuable features of the CoScan Magazine and this website.
The travel awards are funded by the CoScan Trust Fund.

The CoScan Trust Fund is devoted solely to the award of travel scholarships. The Fund consists of donations from societies, from the CoScan main budget, and from generous individuals.
Support us!
We’d like to help as many young people as we can, and we’d like to be in a position to give more generous grants, so please consider making a one-off or regular contribution, however small, using the form below. All donations will directly help young people and continue to enhance our relationship with the Scandinavian countries.
