Providing a hand up, not a hand out
|
Western Chances Scholarships are merit based and are designed for talented young people for whom our support will make a difference.
Our scholarships are unique in that:
|
- The family or young person shapes the scholarship to suit their needs
- The young person is supported for as long as the talent and need continue
- The young person is introduced to other skills development opportunities and into the Western Chances Network where support in work placements, career management, transition to university, etc can be provided
