John Thornton - Young Achievers Foundation

Our Aims

To advance the lives of, and help, young people who are studying at Ferndown Upper School, are members of the Air Cadets' Dorset & Wiltshire Wing, or who are members of the Air Cadet Junior Leaders' Course. We will do this by providing financial assistance for especially, but not exclusively, leisure time activities and pursuits, so as to develop their capabilities that they may grow to full maturity as individuals and members of society.

How our Aims will be carried out

We will award an annual grant and a number of scholarships and bursaries to each of the organisations that we support. This will allow nominated individuals or groups to achieve specific goals, or to encourage personal development.

All applications for Bursarys and Scholarships should be made direct to the three organisations on the home page not to the Foundation.
