The Colledge Family Memorial Fellowship Fund
Colledge Family Memorial Trust, Travelling Fellowships
Applications will open January 2022.
The Colledge Family Memorial Trust was created by a generous bequest from Cecilia Colledge, daughter of a famous London surgeon called Lionel Colledge. The endowment is approximately £2.5 million and the interest is used to fund a small number of high value awards for overseas study each year. Applications are reviewed and scored by a small group of senior ENT surgeons and the Fellowships are usually announced in late June/early July. Recent awards have been for Fellows to study/work in California, Brisbane, Toronto and Germany.
All applications will be considered but applicants who stand to gain clinical or research experience will be given priority. The value of the award to any one Fellow is not likely to be less than £10,000.
