The Neil Vint Bursary Fund.
Each year, the bursary offers one former Chetham’s student the chance to kickstart their career in the music industry, with the award of £1,000 in funding.
The funding is available to former students of Chetham’s, aged between 20 and 26.
Preference will usually be given to students who have recently left music college or university.
Neil Vint, a student at Chetham’s School of Music from 1984-1988, died tragically in 1994. In his memory, his parents have established the Bursary Fund to help young musicians as they begin their professional career.
Find out how the fund has impacted former student, Jonny.
