by | Aug 9, 2023 | General News

The Malcolm Bradbury Trust is delighted to be supporting the National Centre for Writing Academy Bursary Programme with one bursary to be awarded to one student of the ‘Develop Your Fiction (Intermediate)’ course launching this September.

The 18-week online course will encourage fiction writers to further experiment with techniques and to “reconnect with finding a sense of play and adventure” in their writing, whilst offering a tailored learning experience with one-to-one feedback, support in developing a writing routine and so much more.

The Malcolm Bradbury Trust is supporting one bursary for one applicant. You are eligible to apply if:

  • You are a full-time student or pensioner
  • You are in receipt of Jobseekers’ Allowance, Disability Benefits, Income Support, Universal Credit or Working Tax Credits
  • You have an income of less than £18,000 per year.

The deadline to apply for the bursary: 5pm BST, Monday 14 August 2023
