The Speechmark Award

This year's £1,000 Speechmark Bursary towards the funding of overseas research visits or project work is now open for applications.

The bursary started in 1994, when it was known as the Winslow Press Award. Since then it has generated much interest among SLTs wishing to further their professional knowledge overseas, and has helped fund trips to a variety of destinations including India, New Zealand, Hong Kong and Kenya.

The award is open to RCSLT members who have held uninterrupted College membership for at least two years, and provides SLTs with a great opportunity to liaise with international colleagues and to share knowledge and experiences. On their return the award winner must submit a report for publication on the work they have undertaken.

Download the application pack and email to: sharon.woolf@rcslt.org. Submit your entry for the 2007 award by 31 October 2007. Past winners are not eligible to re-apply.

The RCSLT is grateful for the support given by Speechmark Publishing Ltd over the years.
