Randox Antrim Show offers £1,000 Bursary to Local Young Farmers
Yes, Randox Antrim Show is looking for one lucky YFC member to pack their suitcase.
A £1,000 bursary is on offer this year for one lucky, local YFC member.
The Society is seeking the views and contemporary ideas of a passionate, local young farmer to help Randox Antrim Show continue to grow and appeal to both the rural and urban communities.
Applications for the £1,000 bursary are open to YFC members, aged 18-30 years, from the local clubs that are traditionally called upon to assist the Society in the running of its annual show, namely: Crumlin, Gleno Valley, Holestone, Kells & Connor, Lylehill, Randalstown and Straid.
The participating YFC clubs can submit up to two candidates and their applications must be received by 1st May, 2018.
The bursary has the purpose of funding the successful applicant’s travel and accommodation to attend a couple of selected agricultural shows throughout the UK and Ireland, but it won’t just be a free holiday or day out. The recipient will be expected to collate their findings to present a summary of their ideas to the Society on conclusion of their investigation and participate in committee meetings to help deliver approved ideas. The Society is very much looking forward to seeing what the outcome will be.
