Royal Bath & West of England Society

Who we are

The Grants & Scholarships committee of The Royal Bath & West of England Society is an Agricultural Charity with a remit to award grants and scholarships for the promotion of agriculture and rural crafts. 

What we do

Over the years money has been available to assist with funding several students through veterinary school. We have also contributed towards agricultural courses, livestock photography, an overseas study tour, woodland management and forestry courses, a rural art project and a rural leadership course to name just some examples of the varied requests that we have received and which have been successful.  Wherever possible we ask our grantees to come and tell us about their projects or courses and to help steward at the various shows.

The Grants Committee meets bi annually (spring and autumn) to consider applications.
