The Trustees consider it important to continue awarding small grants directly to individuals undertaking hospitality related courses. At the same time they are mindful that this area carries a higher element of risk. In order to minimise the risk grants are, in the majority of cases, made payable to the university, college or training provider.

In fulfilling another objective of the strategy, the Trustees maintained their support of individuals applying directly to the Trust for assistance. Within this charitable area small grants of not more than £500 per person are awarded to individuals undertaking a hospitality related course. This can be at postgraduate/degree level or for a craft course. Funding can be used by the individual to assist with course fees, to purchase books, uniforms or items of kitchen equipment. Applicants can apply at various stages during their course and have to complete a form which can only be submitted for consideration if accompanied by a reference usually, although not exclusively, from the applicant’s college.
In the year under review 12 grants ranging from £225 to £500 were awarded to individuals culminating in a total of £4,140. In the previous year 8 grants were awarded totalling £3,500. The low number of grants awarded for this strategic area is primarily due to the fact that individuals do not always see their application through to completion. The Trustees are mindful of the fact that this strategic area carries a heavier element of risk.
In seeking to minimise the risk the grant is sent to the
individual but made payable to the university, college, supplier, or training provider. The individual is informed of this fact at the early stage of the application process and it would appear that in some cases such a condition has served as a deterrent.
The 12 individuals awarded funding were studying with 9 different establishments/training providers and were undertaking a wide range of hospitality related courses.
When reporting on grants to individuals it is important to state that a significant number of grants awarded to colleges, universities and organisations are used by them to offer student scholarships and to assist with hardship cases. Therefore a far greater number of individuals benefit from Trust funding than indicated in the total outlined in this section.

The Trustees recognise the importance of rewarding those who demonstrate good practice and aspire to further their development by entering various industry competitions. They are very keen to recognise the achievement of these specific skills and expertise by providing educational scholarships for leading industry competitions and by awarding prizes. The Trustees do this by working closely with competition organisers to ensure that the funding is targeted towards the education, training and development of the competition finalists/winners.
