 STUDENT TRUST FUND 

Financial Support to support your studies/interests.

The John Leggott College Student Trust Fund was set up in memory of a former JLC Governor, Bill Martin, who was a keen advocate of social mobility. Established in 1995, the fund supports the advancement of education of present or former full-time students of John Leggott College, by granting financial assistance to them.

The fund can help with course material costs, such as art or textiles supplies, IT equipment, calculators. Previous applicants have successfully received grants for assistance with travel costs to university open days, college trips and visits, additional courses/summer schools, music lessons and equipment to name but a few. This can be either for your main academic subjects or extra-curricular activities/enrichments.

This will be sent to the Clerk to the Trustees who will be in contact to let you know if your application has been successful.
