THE CORBY MEANEY BURSARY
is organised annually by Cashel Lions Club and is intended to assist students who will commence a first-year course in a Third Level or Further Education College in September 2023. The bursaries will be allocated to students in late September and are intended to give financial assistance to students who are faced with the range of financial challenges that are involved in starting a course in a university or college. Applications will be considered from students who have completed their Leaving Certificate in June 2023 or who may be starting college in September after a number of years out of the formal education system. Cashel Lions club will accept applications for the Corby Meaney Bursary Scheme from students in Cashel and neighbouring parishes. The Corby Meaney Bursary Scheme has provided financial assistance to a large number of students over the last forty years and this assistance has proved to be life changing for many. Further details are available from Marie Gayson at [email protected] or from any member of Cashel Lions club.
