Travel Scholarships are funded up to £5,000 for the scholar to undertake a study on an aspect of practice and/or education in the UK or overseas.
There are also Scholarships available as a result of a new partnership with Teenage Cancer Trust with the help of the Raisa Gorbachev Foundation. These are for nurses working in the clinical specialty of teenage cancer within an organisation providing NHS funded care anywhere in the UK.
