Today on Patricia’s 2nd anniversary, we are proud to announce a £4000 bursary scheme in Patricia’s name. The bursary will be open to St. Columb’s pupils beginning university this year who receive EMA. The bursary will pay for their first year at university, and ensures that every applicant has an equal chance to receive third level education, based on merit, not financial background.

Over the next few months we will be organising events to fundraise for the bursary, beginning with a JustGiving page.

Patricia, our pride in your work continues. The pride you instilled in your pupils continues. We hope that through this bursary, we can make you proud of our work to carry on your vision.
