The BBC is making its annual call for applications for funding from the Grace Wyndham Goldie Trust.
The Trust, set up in the name of Grace Wyndham Goldie (1900 - 1986), considers applications for financial assistance from those who have worked, or who are still working, in broadcasting as well as from their children or dependents.
Funds may be granted to assist with educational needs, financial hardship or difficult circumstances arising from ill-health.

Applications to the fund must be submitted by the 31 July deadline and will be considered in September.
