Ten young people are about to start contacting hosts to arrange their first WWOOFing experience thanks to Regional Host Contact Beccy Murrell and the company she works for – THINK Consulting Solutions.
Readers may recall hearing about the bursary fund Beccy arranged via her employer in a recent newsletter.
It offered anyone who was based in the UK and aged 16 or 17 a free membership of WWOOF UK and £30 towards travel costs on the condition that we get plenty of social
media coverage in return.
We received twenty-eight applications and have offered bursaries to:
Agnese Serra
Bethany Burt
Daisy Connor
Elsie Tomlinson
Gemma Robertson
Helena Pibyl
Jessica Kilroy
Mahad Ahmed
Misa Ejegi-Memet
Tobias Rudling
Please keep your eyes open for them whether you are a host or a WWOOFer. We want these young people to have the very best WWOOFing experience and hope they will be ambassadors for what we do in the future.
Look out too for stories of their adventures in our winter newsletter.
