The funding has been awarded to a wide variety of projects and pieces of work and all of the 2016-17 awardees have been asked to provide the piece of work or a report on their project for which they received funding for. You can find out about these fascinating projects and read their reports by clicking on the students' pictures below and this page will be updated as the projects progress.

Hopefully reading these projects will inspire you to make your own application for the 2017-18 awards which we expect to open in December 2017.
