Farnham Youth Choir’s charitable objects are to promote, improve and develop the musical education of young people in a wide catchment area centred on Farnham, through choral training and concert performances. Until 2021, FYC has always aimed informally to assist singers’ families who struggle to pay membership subscriptions. The pandemic, and the hardships it brought, has taught us that we need to formalise this process and thus the FYC Bursary Scheme was born.
The FYC Bursary Fund removes the affordability barrier, both for children who would like to join an award-winning choir like FYC, and for children who already sing with us but whose families face financial difficulty going forward.
Make An Application
The Scheme pays up to 100% of the termly subscription, depending on household income. Applications for help with other costs of membership will also be considered very sympathetically.
Bursaries are awarded at the discretion of FYC’s Bursary Panel and are always subject to funds being available. All applications will be treated in the strictest confidence and applicant’s names will be known only to the Bursary Scheme Administrator.
