Bursaries

With thanks to revenue generated through Friends & Patron memberships, and donations from customers and Business Supporters, we are able to offer our Core Create and Sparks sessions at a reduced fee of £50 (usually £80). We also offer a sibling discount, so if you have two siblings taking part in activities, the termly fee for the second child/young person would only be £25.

For families living with financial hardship, we would not want the termly fees to prevent your child or young person being able to take part, so, we have a limited amount of free, bursary-funded places. Special thanks to The Constance Travis Charitable Foundation for supporting our bursary scheme at The Core.

Please email getinvolved@ thecorecorby.com for further information.
