Cashel Lions Club is delighted to invite parents and students to consider applying for a Corby Meaney Bursary to assist with the financial demands that they will encounter as they start the next phase of education or training. The Corby Meaney Bursary is organised annually by Cashel Lions Club and is intended to assist students who will commence a first year course in a Third Level or Further Education College in September 2025.
The bursaries will be allocated to students in mid-September and are intended to give financial assistance to students who are faced with the range of financial challenges that are involved in starting a course in a university or college. Applications will be considered from students who have completed their Leaving Certificate in June 2025 or who may be starting college in September after a number of years out of the formal education system. Cashel Lions club will accept applications for the Corby Meaney Bursary Scheme from students in Cashel and neighbouring parishes. The Corby Meaney Bursary Scheme has provided financial assistance to a large number of students over the last forty years and this assistance has proved to be life changing for many. It is widely accepted that the expenses involved in the first few weeks of college can make or break the student’s experience and chances of survival in college and the Corby Meaney Bursary is intended to give a student a little financial boost that will give them the opportunity to progress and fulfil their potential.
