Blue Diamond Group Garden Centres have continued their work supporting students studying horticulture through the Blue Diamond Scholarships, which are awarded annually by The Colegrave Seabrook Foundation.
Since beginning the scholarship in 2021, the Blue Diamond Scholarships have awarded a total of £20,000 and 14 students have benefited from these awards, as they begin their journey into their career in horticulture.
Alan Roper, Blue Diamond’s MD said, “Peter Seabrook was one of the people who inspired me to my career as a horticulturalist, so we are really pleased to continue to offer these scholarships through the Colegrave Seabrook Foundation to help students studying horticulture.”
The window for applying for a Blue Diamond Scholarship, or any of the other scholarships offered by the Colegrave Seabrook Foundation is now open. Applications must be received by the end of January.
