Building Wellbeing Together Weekend Bursary Application

The Building Wellbeing Together Weekend (22nd-24th September 2017) will bring together key speakers, organisations and individuals to help set the agenda for the wellbeing movement – exploring how we can build wellbeing together in our own lives, in wider society and in harmony with the natural world.

The Weekend is a collaboration between the Network of Wellbeing (NOW) and Hawkwood Centre for Future Thinking. There is a limited bursary budget available to help support applicants who would otherwise be unable to participate. This application form sets out the criteria for allocating bursaries and the application process.

Criteria: Funds will be allocated in order to maximise their benefit, with priority given to applicants who:

1) Will benefit the most from and contribute the most to the Weekend itself;

2) Will make best use of the Weekend going forward, e.g. through applying it to a project/initiative;

3) Demonstrate a commitment to the wellbeing movement, e.g. through existing voluntary work or other activity.

The decisions made on bursary allocation will be final. We will be happy to provide feedback to applicants when requested.
