A reminder from the sponsors of the annual Print Futures Awards – The Printing Charity, Unite the Union GPM Sector, The John Crosfield Foundation, the British Printing Industries Federation (BPIF), and St Bride Foundation – that the closing date for applications is 29 May 2015.
These annual awards are for cash grants of up to £1,500 each to help people aged 16 to 30 years who are resident in the UK to help pay any costs associated with relevant training courses for a career in printing, publishing or graphic arts in the UK.
The sponsors are also seeking entries from people already working in those sectors in the UK who are looking for funding to help them undertake courses or training sessions to develop their skills in the workplace.
Interviews will be held in London on 15 and 16 June and the Awards will be presented on 23 July at a special event in London.
