Each year the Scottish Rock Garden Club is fortunate to be able to award grant aid for students of horticulture or botany to aid them in their college or university costs and also give grants for exploration projects. (You can find all details here http://www.srgc.net/site/index.php/extensions/grants on the SRGC website )
July 2014 : IRG 55 has an article from Elspeth Mackintosh, Senior Horticulturist at Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh on a trip she made to Bhutan, part funded with an SRGC Exploration Grant. (This article was first published in the SRGC journal.)

For young people under 18 years of age, interested in rock garden and alpine plants, there is also the option of a postal membership to the Club for just £3 per annum. The SRGC believes in positive action to encourage and assist access to membership and study alike. http://www.srgc.net/site/index.php/extensions/join-renew We hope that this is of interest to those of you unaware of the many "faces" of the SRGC.
