As the name implies this Bursary is paid for by the very generous legacy left by the author Ralph Hammond Innes, a great supporter of Sail Training.
The Hammond Innes Bursary is to be used to:
- Provide funding for young people, aged 25 or under, or people with special needs of any age, to take part in a Sail Training voyage.
- Offset the costs of training volunteers and staff.
“...To take one step nearer to adulthood.”

Full members of ASTO are entitled to receive a Hammond Innes Bursary annually, assuming all paperwork has been submitted on time. Associate members may apply for a Bursary at the Board’s discretion, on a year by year basis. Honorary members are not eligible for Hammond Innes Bursaries.
