Elena needed an especially lightweight tent for her expedition
She applied to the Mike Collingwood Memorial Fund for support in the purchase of a tent to meet her needs, for her Gold Duke of Edinburgh / King’s Scout Award expedition.
Following the award of the grant, Elena was eager to try out her tent.
The Mike Collingwood Memorial Fund (MCMF) was established in memory of the commitment of the first President of the Rotary Club of the Weald of Kent to young people. He believed strongly in supporting young people in their efforts to broaden their horizons and better themselves both educationally and vocationally.
MCMF provides grants or equipment to help young people broaden their
horizons educationally or vocationally.
Visit the MCMF page on our website for more information and details of how to apply.
