Value: Up to a maximum of £800. Bursaries will cover 2nd class overland fares or APEX air-fare (if applicable), registration fees and cost of accommodation.

Evidence of other funding obtained should also be provided. All receipts must be returned along with a written report that may be published in the Association's newsletter.
Eligibility: Available to all individuals who have been BACR members for at least one year at time of application. Applicants will be expected to submit an abstract and to present their work at the relevant meeting and should submit copies of the abstract with their application. The Association should be appropriately acknowledged on any poster or presentation. Members may apply for a second award at least 2 years following the initial award.
