The deadline is approaching for the LSA Charitable Trust Fellowship Scheme, which hopes to bring through the next generation of horticulture leaders.
The initiative, launched by the Land Settlement Association and backed by the NFU, BGA, HTA, CIH and AHDB, is open until the end of this week and offers applicants the opportunity to increase their understanding of the commercial horticulture industry and the role that trade bodies play in the development of industry strategies.
Successful applicants to the two-year scheme will be awarded a bursary of up to £3,000 to help cover their activities, and there will be opportuntiies to attend meetings and study tours across the horticulture sectors, covering areas including technical, strategic and marketing.
They will also be the chance to study the entire horticulture industry from propagation to marketing.
More information on the scheme and how to apply can be obtained from Coral Russell at British Growers onCoral.russell@britishgrowers.orgor 07881 295616.
