Fund a bursary

With your philanthropic support, we can work with you to create specific bursary fund opportunities to impact where it matters most to you.

Named bursaries can be funded by individuals, organisations, charitable foundations, or syndicate groups. You will get the opportunity to name your bursary and choose the benefitting sector and industry. Over the years, many generous alumni have created bursaries to help people from the third-sector attend our programmes. 

"My Gompels Healthcare bursary was very much appreciated and I wouldn’t have been able to participate in the programme without it. It has given me a fantastic network of peers that will be able to support me and Help the Hospices will see the benefits of a more thoughtful and motivated individual!"

Maxine Trotter, Director of Fundraising, Help the Hospices

Reflections from Bursary Funders

Windsor Leadership has played such an important part in my life and has been critical in helping me develop the confidence to take on bigger and bigger leadership challenges over the years. Providing a bursary for a participant who might otherwise not be able to join a programme is my way of helping to extend the personal and collective leadership impact we can all have on our organisations and the communities we live in. This type of trust based leadership is even more important in today's world and I am delighted to be in a position to give back.

Providing bursaries for candidates from our sector is a great way of giving something back and showing that you are serious about leadership development and improvement.

I was delighted to have the opportunity to contribute towards a bursary for someone who might otherwise not get the chance to participate in a Windsor Leadership programme as I had. I really enjoyed my Windsor programme, the mix of individuals from a variety of sectors and roles made the vibrancy of the discussions all the more meaningful.  Life is full of opportunities to donate, but perhaps allowing someone to experience what you had experienced is one of the best, being able to specify some criteria to focus the choice made it all the better.   Of course you can gift aid it too, which allows the money to go further and don’t need to fund a whole one, many donations might do that!
