It has been amazing to get the camps off the ground with funding from The Burns Price Foundation. I highly recommend others to apply and get their own projects going.

We congratulate Mya Rose Birdgirl Craig who was awarded a Honorary Doctor of Science at the University of Bristol, aged 17. Mya is the founder of, and inspiration behind Black2Nature – a project that has been in part funded by the Burns Price Foundation. Founding Trustee Peter Price was delighted to be present in Bristol to help Mya celebrate.

We are a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) that seeks to promote good citizenship amongst young people in the UK. What makes us unique is that we want applicants to be the young people themselves, supported by adult supervision.
