Flinders Port Holdings (FPH) and Member for Flinders Sam Telfer are launching the \u2018Youth Travel Grants Scheme\u2019 for students in the South Australian electorate of Flinders, to support them in their travel for out-of-school endeavours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flinders Port Holdings Chief Executive Officer Stewart Lammin said a funding pool of $14,000 was available to students in the Flinders electorate, which covers the Eyre Peninsula and West Coast. Students can apply for an allocated portion of that funding by submitting an application through the office of the Member for Flinders, Sam Telfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTravelling to state, national and international events can be expensive for families, particularly when they live hours away from a capital city,\u201d Mr Lammin said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWorking closely with the Eyre Peninsula community, where many of our staff live and work, we know grants can help students reach that next level of competition, no matter where it is.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Member for Flinders, Sam Telfer, said it was important to ensure all students had opportunities despite where they live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLiving on the Eyre Peninsula sometimes creates challenges where distance is concerned, especially with cost of travel,\u201d Mr Telfer said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe appreciate the support FPH provides for our youth as they travel beyond the electorate for activities, whether it\u2019s sport, the arts or academic related.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYouth in our region have always been involved with sporting, academic or artistic endeavours around the State, and it\u2019s important they are enabled to participate more widely and to represent themselves or their region.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The grants will be distributed via Mr Telfer\u2019s office, with application forms available for download from his website. Alternatively, people can call into the office for a hard copy or request one via email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the applicant is successful, they will be given a pre-loaded credit card to spend on travel-related expenses, which must be collected from Mr Telfer\u2019s office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Applications are open to all school-aged children living within the Flinders electorate travelling within the state, nationally or internationally for extra-curricular activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
