The Forepoint Award bursary is back!
We’ve awarded three promising graphic design students from the University of Lancashire with £1,000 bursaries for their outstanding portfolios, attendance and attitude.
Heidi Rowntree, Hayley Wray and Isabel Grace Wood were selected out of their entire cohort and were presented their awards by our Creative Partner, Keith Noble.
The £1,000 bursary is our way of supporting the upcoming creative talent studying BA Hons Graphic Design. Each student can use theirs to purchase equipment, books, attend events, or anything to further their design education.
“I’m extremely grateful to have received this award and I’m proud of myself for being consistent with my work. With the bursary I have bought myself a PC, which has the power to handle large files and complex motion graphics. This is great especially as I am passionate about learning more about After Effects and motion in general. Thank you to my tutors and the staff at Forepoint that support us students in this industry!” Heidi Rowntree.
“I’m very grateful to be picked for this award, it means a lot to me that my efforts are being recognised. I always want to try my hardest in my work and this award has helped me get the tech I need to try my hardest outside of university as well as in. It has really helped me so much, thank you.” Hayley Wray.
Congratulations, Heidi, Hayley and Isabel!
