£800 honey..

Yesterday I took part in a shortlisting exercise for students who had applied for the Honey Pot funding.

The Honey Pot provides financial support for undergraduate students on work placements during the summer vacations. They can be awarded up to £800 to cover costs such as transport, accomodation and for those travelling abroad visas and vaccinations. There was a great variety of applications from those looking to do humanitarian placements in Africa to those undertaking research projects at the University of Birmingham. Every application I viewed was of a high quality and the Honey Pot scheme, which is provided by the Careers Centre, is very commendable!

Best of luck to all those who put an application in.
