Talented youngsters in Bridlington are once again being invited to apply for a grant from the Parker Home Trust.
The Parker Home Trust was set up several years ago originating from a bequest by a Mr Parker whose purpose was to benefit the children of Burlington (later changed to the whole of Bridlington).
The money was used to establish the Parker Children’s Home in Marton Road, Bridlington which was later sold, and the proceeds were used to create the Parker Home Trust. The interest from the money received from the sale is now used to benefit boys and girls under the age of 18 who live in Bridlington.
Young gymnasts, dancers, swimmers, athletes, musicians and budding authors have previously benefitted from the grant and money is available for children who have a special talent in any area.
Youngsters who believe they might be eligible to benefit from the trust should complete an application form, available by emailing the Clerk to the Trustees – jayne.dale@eastriding.gov.uk and return it no later than 27 February 2026.
