The SEF provides grants to young people under 25 who live in Shelley and are about to go on to full time Higher Education or Level 3 Apprenticeships or equivalent. These grants are to help with the purchase of books, tools, specialist clothing or other materials necessary for your course.
In years where there is less money in the Trust, the number of years applicants have lived in Shelley may be taken into account, and may result in a sliding scale of financial help being awarded.
Grants will be issued towards the end of October as a Bank Transfer if students Bank Account details have been entered below otherwise a cheque will be sent to the current address listed.
The grants are targeted at students continuing education beyond 'A' level and BTecs and are available to those under the age of 25 regardless of family income. You can only receive this grant once so if you have previously successfully applied for an SEF grant you are not eligable to apply again.
Applications must reach us by Tuesday, 30th September 2025.
