Applications are now invited for awards from students who are progressing from secondary education to a high level course in Welsh, English, or a Creative Arts subject. The purpose of the award is to assist students with the purchase of materials or books at the start of their course. If a student has achieved musical qualifications during their school year but is pursuing a course in another field they may still be eligible if they continue to study or perform music. Applicants must state if they intend to take a gap year. Applicants must live in and around the Dyfi Valley, including Aberdyfi and Tywyn.<\/p>\n
The Foundation was started by Sally Marshall and her late husband Jim and the Friends of the Tabernacle in 1995. Countless youngsters have benefitted since then and it is a privilege to keep in touch with them and watch them progress in their chosen careers.<\/p>\n
The foundation is generously supported by a group of benefactors, donors and fundraising events. We gratefully acknowledge the support given.<\/p>\n

\nRecipients of an award are required to acknowledge it by letter to Sally Marshall and inform her of how the money is spent. We also hope that each recipient will be prepared to contribute in some way in support of the Tabernacle. It is a pleasure to welcome back recipients who have been willing to give a talk, mount a small exhibition, give a recital or help with stewarding events.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
