The Amos Bursary
Promoting Excellence | Shaping Futures


We are the Amos Bursary helping Britain’s talented young people of African and Caribbean heritage fulfil their academic potential, attend top universities and secure good professional jobs in which they can excel and give back to society.

British people of African and Caribbean descent are still the most unrepresented in key positions throughout the UK. Since 2009 we have been building relationships with a wide network of universities, mentors, sponsors and corporate partners to bring about change.

We provide the personal, and professional development and connections needed to give these young people the confidence and opportunity to excel. We bring together businesses committed to diversity, with a pool of exceptional talent. We are changing the narrative about our young people and overcoming negative perceptions.
