The Vronwy Hankey Memorial Fund for Aegean Studies was funded by gifts to the School’s Appeal in memory of Vronwy Hankey and her husband Henry. Grants, which are unlikely to be more than £1000, are available for the expenses (including, but not limited to, attending conferences to present papers, photography, and travel to museums and sites) involved in research in the prehistory of the Aegean and its connections with the East Mediterranean. Preference may be given to younger Students.
Applications may be made for but are not limited to, grants towards the maintenance costs of longer stays at museums and other study centres so as to achieve work that would not otherwise have been attempted. Recipients of awards must have been admitted as members of the School before receiving their grants and are required to submit a short report to the School Administrator on the use of the grant by 30th April the following year.
Applications should not be longer than two pages and should include a statement of the purposes of the application and a budget and timetable for the proposed work. Applicants must also supply the name of a single referee whom the awarding panel may consult.
Applications must be submitted as email attachments to school.administrator@bsa.ac.uk by Wednesday 30th April 2025.
